Thank you for visiting The
Mobile Factory !
All
of my hanging
mobiles are hand made to order, and are carefully constructed of the
highest quality materials. Each one is unique in its own way, and is
signed and dated as a work of art. These beautiful kinetic sculptures
can add an elegant accent and a hint of playfulness to that special
space in your home or office.
I have a range of designs and sizes to compliment nearly any size
space and decor. Atriums, vaulted ceilings, multi-floor foyers, and
large office spaces are perfect for my larger sized hanging mobile
sculptures, but there are plenty of smaller designs to choose from if
you don't have much room. Keep in mind also, that all of these designs
can be enlarged or reduced, often without any change in price.
You can order one of my original hanging mobile or stabile designs
showcased in the galleries, or commission a custom hanging mobile or
stabile based on your own specific design requirements.
Refer to the "Ordering & Information" page and/or contact me
for more details regarding custom commissions.
Take a walk through my Hanging Mobile gallery,
and be sure to also check out my Stabiles (table-top hanging
mobiles) and visit the "Commissions" page for examples of custom
mobiles that I have specially designed for clients.
Send me an email if you are curious or see something of interest, and
I'll be happy to send you a price list.
Thanks for visiting!

Biography
I started making hanging mobiles about 25 years ago after I
stumbled upon a book about Alexander Calder in my local library. Like
many people, I was only familiar with the type of mobiles that were to
be found in a nursery hanging over a baby crib. I had no idea that a
hanging mobile could be "fine art", or that it was an art form uniquely
invented by Calder in the 1930's and developed into fantastic levels of
beauty and complexity over the next 40 years of his life.
I was stunned by the pictures in that book. The abstract yet
organic polymorphic shapes and unbelievable creativity that Calder used
in the evolution of his designs amazed me, and the artistic combination
of playfulness, abstraction, and engineering instantly captivated me.
I had to have a hanging mobile of my own!
I studied photographs of Calder's work and searched for more
information in libraries about hanging mobiles and how to construct
them. About a week later, my first mobile, a contraption made from coat
hangers and poster board, was hanging over my bed. I was hooked.
Twenty-five years later, I am still making hanging mobiles and I
still get the same thrill when I hang one up and "set it free" for the
first time. They are truly a unique form of art that can be appreciated
by young and old.
I hope you enjoy my art! Please feel free to email me with any
questions or comments that you might have.
Thanks again for visiting "The Mobile Factory" !
