Project
Bloodwork
Blood Work is a biologically inspired kinetic sculpture. A glass sculpture, filled with blue and red liquids, is suspended in a two axis gimbal. The organic glass sculpture symbolizes the closed cardiovascular systems of living things. Blue and red liquids represent copper-rich and iron-rich blood.
The outer gimbal ring is suspended from the ceiling and connected to a motor fixed to the floor. A timing belt mechanism transmits the motion to the outer ring which in turn tumbles the freely-rotating inner ring and the suspended sculpture.
Victor designed and constructed the delicate mechanical parts of the sculpture, the suspension details, the electronics and the motor assembly. The glass sculpture is made by Tobias Klein, Leung Pok Yin Victor and Jane Prophet.
