A Kinetic Sculpture With Light Bulbs and Hammers in Motion

The Fragility of Complexity from Neil Mendoza on Vimeo.

Artist Neil Mendoza created a sculpture he calls “The Fragility of Complexity” that features hammers and light bulbs in motion.

Mendoza says about his creation, “The world today is built upon multiple layers of complex interconnected systems. As time goes by, the illusion of the stability and sustainability of these systems is starting to fade away. This kinetic sculpture composed of hammers and light bulbs invites the viewer to contemplate this delicate balance of complex fragility. Light, glass and metal perform a ritual of periodic motion, carefully choreographed to avoid each other as long as each element of the system continues to function as intended.”
