Nautilus

  - work for a threshold, 1986

An installation in the Förtsch Galerie together with Josef Erben and Ulrich Eller.

The floors of both gallery spaces had a difference of height of some centimeters. On the border, where the two levels met, danced a small ship like sculpture. It seemed to ride on the waves of the floor planks.

The sculpture was driven by a little electric motor and made a lot of noise. That was because I made use of mechanical gears to get a calm and smooth movement.

My first kinetic sculpture, not completey perfect.
