Kinetics are present in every art piece, the idea of movement, a gentle motion. I am more intrigued by the idea of struggle or forced movement,this precarious struggle to make the artwork move with me, breath with me; perhaps a struggle to bring life to the work. I am currently working on a form of prosthetic arms that attach to my back and draw lines based on my movement. I am looking for a new way to put pen to paper that is not governed by a program parameters (drawing machine /drawing apps), the action restricted only by my own interactions.
