True junkers will appreciate this piece!!

First, I must apologize for not being able to capture
this piece of art in full functioning capability!! 2 of the
4 sections were not working the day we snapped
these shots.

This beautiful artwork is sitting in the main lobby
of the hospital we frequent many times a year.
Not only has our daughter had to stay but her doctor
is in an adjacent building...so, this fun machine has been
a blessing and comfort, to us as well.

The artist who designed this took many discarded
items and positioned and tweaked them to flow so
smoothly into the next. Not only is it a visual piece of
art but also one that makes unique noises!! As each ball
hits a loop, twist, bucket, chime or prong it lets out
funny noises. You can hear it long before you ever
get to it....which brings out the curiousity seekers young
and old!!

I wish I knew exactly who made this so that I could interview
them and see what other beautiful things they've created but
for now, all I can say is that it's marked with Rhoads 1993. I
hope you enjoy looking at the parts of this awesome artwork
and maybe you can imagine the sounds it makes for all
the kids who look forward to seeing and hearing it each day.

Sometimes a small gesture, means the whole world to
its recipient!! Have an awesome day!! **GIGI** ;)
