'GunBall Ring Machine', 18K Gold, one-of-a-kind, by Christopher Kreiling
Located in Los Angeles, CA
The 'Gun Ball Ring Machine' is a one-of-a-kind lamp and sculpture. The idea is to take guns and deactivate them by viewing them as sculptures rather than weapons. The machine comes stocked with the five rings displayed on the latex hand. The interior is illuminated with mini spotlights and a central pink rear lamp. Five bronze 1K coins are also included. The rings can be reordered to keep the machine fully stocked. 4 of the rings are solid 18-karat gold, and one promise ring in 18-karat gold with a black diamond stud. The jewelry is dispensed in black velvet bags within a 2" transparent plastic ball.

Contemporary Large-Scale Outdoor Kinetic Concrete Sculpture and Installation
By Johnny Poux
Located in kingston, NY
Johnny Poux sculptures
Johnny Poux’s large-scale kinetic concrete sculptures and installations explore the relationship between motion and mass, industry and nature.
Each piece is made individually to order.
Artist statement
My work as an artist has been focused primarily on large-scale kinetic pieces that explore my unyielding fascination with simple machine principles, movement, and the beauty and physics of a large mass in motion. Working with industrial materials like concrete and steel, and occasionally combining these with natural forms or living things like trees, my work is often about the tension between man and nature and our technological footprint. I am drawn to creating large-scale work that moves, evokes feelings of wonder, is interactive, and alters our relationship to the world for a moment.
I have built and installed 30 foot tall steel kinetic pieces that span a full 40’ circle as if in flight and have created 1000 lb. concrete pieces that ripple like water in the historic cement mines of Rosendale, NY. I have balanced and counter weighted a 55’ tall black walnut tree...
