Alon Meron Design
Dreams Engineering This is a mobile I made for my boy's nursery when he was little. The nursery mobile we got as a gift didn't make any sense when looked at from below (some fury animals bums circling around to tinkly music. So I made a mobile that does motion and colour and composition without being childish. The beams move about in hypnotic planetary orbits. Brings to mind the sense of very large things moving very quietly.
(when I was a child I had Rene Magritte's Castle in the Pyrenees on my bedroom wall and my grandmother, who was a psychologist used to say it worries her. I was hoping for a similar effect with large beams, painted bright colours circling against the indoor sky)
