Haryuki UCHIDA,<br />
‘Gravity circle’<br />
2007<br />
stainless steel, magnet, paint<br />
Uchida is a Japanese artist whose work has been shown<br />
in Sculpture by the Sea. His work is kinetic, incorporating<br />
movement, and he often uses magnets to create<br />
illusionary effects. The forms in the work combine to<br />
suggest balance, energy and poise; the large central<br />
element balances across a narrow edge and references<br />
the scales of justice – the fine-tuning and careful focus<br />
required in weighing evidence and delivering fairness in<br />
the judicial process.<br />
