Cloud Mesa

My latest inkjet mobile -- it's the largest one yet, around 4 feet wide.


Apart from expanding the scale, I also incorporated maps into both sides of each paper piece (previous mobiles only had maps on the white side), and I experimented with more complex joinery. For example, the piece in the foreground here is constructed from seven strips of paper.


My aim with this mobile was to evoke both the solidity of a mountain as well as the amorphousness of a cloud formation.
