For much of her life, Lin Emery has been fascinated by chaos theory, particularly as it relates to nature and weather. This selection of Emery’s new kinetic sculptures continue to be inspired by natural forms and activated by natural forces, such as wind. Made of highly-polished aluminum, these lyrical works are also studies in mathematics and engineering. While created using an industrial process and material, the sculptures themselves “take on the qualities of living, growing, natural things.”
