Joule

Abstract pans, jointed together, form a mobile that expresses the interdependence of different systems and natural balance.

If any weight is applied, or if the mobile is touched, it will move briefly until it rights itself again and finds a new balance. The work is an object of reflection on the fragile interrelations within nature, the balance of the economy, and balance in our lives. The dependency of weight and counterweight, the effect of the small on the whole system; in short, cause and effect are played out poetically in this work.

The hanging sculpture moves therefore not only the pans of the scales, but also our thoughts.
