Cycloptopus by Nemo Gould

Cycloptopus

Cycloptopus, a wonderful new kinetic sculpture by Nemo Gould. Here’s Nemo’s description of the piece:

Cycloptopus is a fearsome hybrid of two of my favorite monsters, one real, one mythical. This creature is particularly dangerous because of its irritability. You’d be irritable too if you were powered by an open flame and your body was made of wood.

Materials:
Radio cabinets, rocking chairs, fake fireplace, decorative clock elements, cabinet knobs, wall paper, chair parts, lamp parts, wheel hub, motors, LEDs.

Art by Nemo Gould, Jesse Small, Jeremy Mayer, Scott Hove and Aimee Baldwin will be on display at the Natural Selection gallery exhibit which opens May 11 at Lost & Foundry Studios in Oakland, CA.
