Rolling Ball Sculpture:
"Captures the Mind and Frees your Imagination"


Check out My Blog: http://mgaulden.blogspot.com/
I will post the progress of my current sculpture,
and talk about what's new with my art.

How to make Rolling Ball Sculpture

(Something to point your imagination in the right direction...)


I try not to be aware of how other people solve problems on their artwork, I like finding my own way and making my own rules. I am inspired by making something fun out of virtually nothing. I enjoy watching my sculptures grow and develop as I build them, willing them to be finished so I can watch them in motion. I create my pieces with just some basic tools and a few different sizes of long wire.

All of my kinematic art rolling ball sculptures are unique and completely hand crafted. I spend many hours bending each curve, and swerve by hand, then making precise and durable welds. Its stainless steel construction is strong, and will not rust or tarnish. I bank all of my corners without using guardrails to keep the marble on the track. This keeps the sculpture uncluttered with unnecessary wire.



Find here quite a few different pictures and videos of rolling ball sculptures, kinematic art, and mechanical art.

Most pictures can be clicked to get a much larger version, and if you like, rolling ball sculpture video of most RBS's, too. C’mon on in and enjoy!

Watch with wonder as the mesmerizing movement of colored marbles cycle through, and change patterns within these ever moving sculptures. Having a motorized, automatic marble lift gives these sculptures a heart beat. 

This is rolling ball sculpture and kinematic wall art! The ball lift's mechanical energy is transferred to a rhythmic and synchronized, yet scattered and chaotic colorful mix of moving marbles. The effect makes tracking marbles more fun and entertaining! This is what kinetic art is supposed to be.

Rolling Ball Sculpture, simply put, is a roller-coaster made just for a rolling ball. A two rail track twists and turns its way around, through, under and sometimes over any number of elements and surprises. The marble is the only power needed to motivate and animate these fun, living, pulsing pieces of kinetic wire art.

All of my kinematic art sculptures are unique and completely hand crafted. I spend many hours bending each curve, and swerve by hand, then making precise and durable welds. Its stainless steel construction is strong, and will not rust or tarnish. I bank all of my corners, using gravity and the rules of relativity to keep the marbles on the track. This keeps the sculpture uncluttered with unnecessary wire. I build Rolling Ball Sculptures for the table top, to stand on the floor, or hang on the wall.
