I think this is AMAZING!
This piece is in the Museum of the Moving Image in Astoria, NY. It is called Feral Fount (1996) by Gregory Barsamian (American, born 1953); made from Steel, Urethane Foam, Acrylic Paint, Motor, and Strobe Light.
Feral Fount is made up of a series of 97 small sculptures. These sculptures act the same way drawings work in a flip book or frames of an animated movie. Thanks to the use of a strobe light the sculptures appear to be moving and transforming from a faucet that drips, water drops then turn into bombs, the bombs pass through hands, then into a paper airplane, and landing in an exploding dishpan.
I love it!
...and you should go see it, my little video doesn't do it justice.
