When I was in art school, one of the things I kept telling my supervisor was that I wanted my paintings to "move" - in the literal sense.

I realise that there are such things as cinemas, motion picture and multimedia animation, but there's something in an obviously static, heavy object suddenly coming to life.

This artist has taken that notion and created an interesting way of making it manifest.
