flensted futura mobile

mobiles are a traditional craft in denmark; but the modern mobile was created in 1954 by christian flensted and his wife grethe. their first design; the stork mobile; was a great success; and now flies all over the world. the stork was followed by an eclectic and ever increasing collection. christian flensted became known as the uromager; a name impossible to translate into english; which means a maker of things mischievous and always on the move. the first mobile designed by Ole Flensted in 1970. the six bars create a dynamic tension between light and heavy counterpoints. six planets with their moons? or a symbol of the light and dark sides of our personalities?
