James Swan - Kinetic Sculptor
James Swan had his first exhibition at the Shoalhaven City Arts Centre in February 2015. His kinetic sculptures are based on engines of various types, from steam through petrol to stirling.
This is a Stirling engine ( click here to see it in operation ) When in full operation it drives a music box which plays "Greensleeves". The work is a beautiful object in its own right but also a work of exquisite craftmanship. (Youtube - how a stirling works) |
