Theo Jansen
Theo Jansen has been called a modern-day Da Vinci, and refers to himself as a ‘kinetic sculptor’. The Dutch artist uses everyday materials like cardboard and balsa wood to make enormous, wind-powered creatures that evoke prehistoric insects and primordial crustaceans that move with eerie and beautiful elegance.

Gerry,
I’m sorry that i didn’t see this earlier. I am forever a fan of theo’s work.
I troll his website often for new images, glimpses of ideas. Hoping to visit him some day.
