DescriptionThe mobile consists of about 27 pieces of fused flat glass in primary colors cut into geometric shapes, primarily disks and lozenge shapes. Many of these shapes are decorated with central dots resulting in the appearance of stylized eyes. The glass components are suspended from integrated copper rings that allow them to be suspended from copper wire bars that allow the shapes to move even in a gentle draft of air.
