Earth Forces by Ned Kahn
Check out these five interactive art works where you can set in motion the turbulent forces at work in avalanches, storms, underground movement and other earth-shattering occurences. Glass beads, garnet sand, magnetic sand and glass spheres move in beautiful and unique ways as they flow, attract, make patterns, sink and float to demonstrate the types of movements that happen on a larger scale to reshape the earth.
Artist Ned Kahn also created the Museum's facade wind sculpture, Articulated Cloud, with Koning Eizenberg Architecture, and the piece Rock Music.
