Dr Evermor's Forevertron is a huge, steampunk-like sculpture housed in Dr Evermor's Art Park, Sumpter, Wisconsin. The 300-ton structure is composed of scrap metal, two Thomas Edison dynamos from the 1880s, high-voltage components from 1920s power stations, parts from the nearby Badger Army Ammunition Plant, and a decontamination chamber from the Apollo 11 space mission. Dr Evermor was, apparently, a Victorian inventor who created the Forevertron to launch himself "into the heavens on a lightning magnetic force beam." The structure also includes a teahouse gazebo and a giant telescope from "where sceptics might observe the ascent." The Forevertron was actually the work of Tom Every, a demolition expert who spent years collecting antique machinery for his sculptures. The Art Park also boasts sculptures with titles like the Celestial Listening Ear and the Overlord Master Control Tower.
I study nature and a lot of these forms come from observing plants, Ruth Asawa said. I really look at nature, and I just do it as I see it. I draw something on paper. And then I am able to take a wire line and go into the air and define the air without stealing it from anyone.
Sculpture by American artist Cathy Lu, 2020s, whose practice "manipulates traditional Chinese art objects and symbols as a way to deconstruct the assumptions we have about Asian American identity and cultural authenticity."
Unbound critter progress. Time to have a bite to eat now. I mean for me, not for him. He probably eats large, slimy insects.
More updates will follow.

More'll follow in this thread.
SculptureThis ansible is coming back for repairs. The collector's son decided it was time to play with it in a not so good way. Will be fun to time travel with it and revisit something I made nearly 10yrs ago.
Finally started creating something in Unbound again. It's been a while since my last Unbound scene.
I'll post updates in this thread. See other posts in this thread for more about Unbound.

Look at this big kitty! He has wings! He's on a cart with a sign that says "Don't Touch!" But I want to touch him! He's so colorful!
Oversized mascara tubes, razors, rings, perfume bottles, and droopy flowers resemble the familiar surface of a cluttered vanity or overcrowded bathroom countertop in Annie Duncan's ceramic assemblages.

Mark di Suvero is in his 90s now. I just gush over his work. It is often not very photogenic, but that was never his goal. It's experiential art, kinetically, interactively. If you ever get the chance to engage it, this is one of my all-time favorites, not just of his work but of any ever:

Finally, the Secret Bench by Lea Vivot. A that reminds us that and is still there, right around us. There wasn't a lot of people on the street at that time (it was 10am-ish), so I wonder what the man sitting behind it at that time was thinking.
