This supremely elegant mobile by Daniel Chadwick is beautifully balanced and exquisitely crafted to bring gentle movement to any interior.
For many years the way forms move, either visually as one moves around them, or literally by using some kinetic energy, has been at the heart of Chadwick’s fascination with sculpture. They are often reminiscent of organic forms or processes found in nature, moving sea urchins or pond skaters, or the way oil and water repel each other into droplets, communicating a childhood wonder at how things work.
Daniel Chadwick's mobiles provide the viewer with a perfectly contained cosmos: an ordering of space, time and form, over which the viewer presides. Many of this mobiles have been designed for huge corporate spaces and Chadwick’s mobiles can be found in the London headquarters of a number of companies including Crest, Pfizer and Tetrapak. Daniel Chadwick’s training as an artist is rooted in architectural design and practice and from 1987-1991, Chadwick worked at Zaha Hadid Architects. Since the early 1990s Chadwick has exhibited widely thoughout the United Kingdom and internationally.
