About Me
- Werner Sun
- Ithaca, New York, United States
- I have always been inspired by the mobiles of Alexander Calder, and I try to capture the same lightness and grace in my own sculptures. However, being a particle physicist, I am also interested in bringing invisible, abstract ideas to life and giving them tangible form. Mapping the space between the poetic and the analytic is the unspoken subject of my work. My sculptures range in size from miniature wall mobiles to room-filling installations, and I employ a variety of materials: metal, wood, stone, polymer clay, paper, and found objects. I work primarily with a geometric vocabulary, arranging blocks of color into compositions that are both organized and flexible. Indeed, it is this balance between stability and chaos, control and movement, that animates my work and my imagination.

Synapses II
Yesterday, I made a wall hanging for my upcoming show at The Corners Gallery. It's a piece of canvas spray painted with stencils from this cardboard mobile. I had decided that the negative cutouts didn't really work with the mobile, but now I've found another use for them.
