The Gold Universe
Embark on a celestial journey with "The Gold Universe," a mesmerizing kinetic sculpture that captures the dazzling brilliance and dynamic energy of the cosmos. At its heart lies a gleaming gold frame. Crafted in two tiers, it spins effortlessly, setting the entire sculpture in motion. From its inner circle flows a cascade of gold fringe, mimicking the ethereal wisps of a nebula as the sculpture dances.
Seven celestial suns, meticulously crafted from gold forms, radiate outward from the outer frame. Each sun cradles a medium vintage clear prism, its facets catching the light and erupting in a mesmerizing display of rainbows – a captivating dance of light mimicking the celestial spectacle of a solar flare.
Descending from the center of the golden frame, a magnificent large star takes center stage. Its intricate form houses a massive vintage clear prism, a radiant jewel that spins gracefully, symbolizing the heart of this celestial symphony.
Above the swirling cosmos, a trio of smaller vintage clear prisms hang in descending order, like distant stars beckoning to be explored. Uniting these elements is a delicate chain adorned with stars and moons, a subtle reminder of the vast celestial tapestry that binds them all together. See how "The Gold Universe" moves HERE.
More than just a sculpture, "The Gold Universe" is a captivating kinetic experience that invites you to lose yourself in the awe-inspiring beauty and boundless wonder of the cosmos.

Installation:
Your one-of-a-kind artwork is original with vintage glass prisms and is created by Ell McEvory. Display your art indoors in a location with direct sunlight for optimal effect. It’s designed to be held correctly by gravity. Locate the metal form seams; these should face downwards when hung. All of the elements are designed to dance in the sunlight.
Gentle care:
To clean the vintage prisms, lightly mist a soft cloth with glass cleaner. Gently wipe each prism with the cloth. The metal forms can be dusted with a soft, dry cloth.
