Collaged Geometric Disc Mobile

About Collaged Geometric Disc Mobile

Dynamic and whimsical, Aron Hill’s mobile is a joyful contemporary kinetic sculpture. Three separate discs are covered in a curated collage of shapes and brilliant colours. The colour profile here is Hill’s characteristically vivid palette-- orange, yellow, blue, red, and green punctuated by black and white. Delicately balanced, the sculpture moves in the air redefining the space and affording the viewer a fresh ‘view’.

Mobiles have existed for millennia—at first as windchimes, then re-imagined by Russian sculptors in the early 20th century and finally popularized as an art form by the American sculptor Alexander Calder in the 1930’s. The word ‘mobile’ is a French pun meaning both mobile and motive.

“The mobiles being both 2D and 3D and with the added potential for movement have a playful nature to them. The process of collaging is also more intuitive than merely relying on a formal painting process.” Aron Hill
