This is a simple kinetic sculpture. When the red ball which hangs from the thread above is moved sideways and released, as it swings from side to side the image of it in the hemispherical mirror behind moves in the opposite direction. If the red ball swings in and out from the frame, the image of it creates other effects. From Design Marketing, 31 St. Johns Road, Croydon, Surrey, England.
