About Kindal-Celebration

Kindala - Celebration is a kinetic wall sculpture by David C. Roy of Wood That Works

The Kindala concept which has been explored in a number other designs has been re-visited in this sculpture. The mesmerizing  slow unfolding of intricate circular designs continues to fascinate me. This is the most complex Kindala pattern set I have attempted. The pattern reminds me of starburst fireworks. Hence the name Celebration. 

I use the same base and drive system in both of my long running introductions in the 2021 design period. I like it because it is a step away from the designs like Duality based on pattern wheel only but has the long run time and easy wind that I like to live with. Celebration wins the run time award in the 2021 designs coming in a couple of hours longer running than Boomerang. The Kindala type of motion requires less energy so runs longer. 


Why Kindala?

Kindala is a made up word I created by combining Mandala and kinetic. I thought this series needed a distinctive moniker. Every design has a circular design like a mandala and they all move but each has visual distinctions in the wheel design or power structure.
