Kevin Edgar
Windswimmers
"I create anatomically accurate mobiles of fish from copper and brass that have a realistic swimming motion in the wind."
Windswimmer copper fish mobiles are mesmerizing to watch. The slightest breeze sets them in motion. You will find it difficult to look away as they swim.
A pattern is used to draw the outline of the fish segments. They are then cut and then formed by hand, and soldered. The segments then have a chemical patina applied. The finished pieces are assembled and using brass fishing swivels 100 pound test salt water fishing line and brass rods, the perfectly balanced mobile is created.
Kevin Edgar is a self-taught artist/craftsman having spent is career creating wood and glass products. The Windswimmers are his latest area of interest.
