Two installations completed last week at the new Rehabilitation Hospital of Wisconsin. The 46 bed hospital is located on the outskirts of Waukesha, about 20 miles from Milwaukee. It has three wings. One of the wings has a northwoods theme. The mobile I made hangs in the family room on the north side of the building. Consists of 13 metal fish, each 6" - 15" in length. One objective of the mobile is to have the fish move in the air as real fish move in water - free and easy. The second piece of artwork is on a wall in the front entrance lobby. It consists of seven groups of wire people attached to a support wire. Each group has 3 - 5 people. Each person is about 6" in height. An objective of the work is to convey feelings of movement, bending, stretching, waving.
Recently installed seven painted sphere mobiles at nearby restaurant. Red, blue, yellow, silver.
Will be meeting with a tool and die company in the next week or so to discuss cutting some metal I have in inventory.
About Me
- Wisco Tom
- I have been making mobiles and sculpture for many years. Public and private commissions, art shows, representation in galleries and retail stores, participation in silent art auctions, and volunteer work for art related community agencies are part of my background. Now, I'm content to hustle less and concentrate on the doing part of art in my studio and workshop. This blog allows me to stay in touch with those who have an interest in what I create, exchange ideas, and sell my work.
