    During the past 20 years, Chico MacMurtrie's kinetic, monumental sculputral installations have focused on different representations of the body -- both human and animal.

    Expanding and contracting in various configurations, the sculptures developed for the Beall Center exhibition are controlled by computational methods. Using the principles of a skeletal-muscular system powered by compressed air, MacMurtrie's objects oscillate, creating the illusion of living objects. MacMurtrie's work dynamically responds to the movements of its viewers to create a menagerie of moving forms.
