Buckley Smith designed this flying boat mobile from a lobster pot buoy and bent oak sticks, gauze. It measures 72″ x 60″ x 54″.
Buckley has always loved the soaring nature of sails. In “Da Vinci Downeast” he invites us to fly with him in a vessel aloft, sailing in a Da Vinci-style flying machine to the heavenly places of our imagination.
He uses found materials for this creation. With it he makes the familiar a little mysterious, hope-filled and exciting.
Work by commission $4500 — Needs a tall ceiling for display — 12 ft height. Perfect for commercial building lobbies: hotels, office buildings, airports, banks, etc.
Buck made this lateen rig sloop mobile to fly from a bedroom ceiling. The hull is of wire. Sails of painted paper. 30″ tall. 18″ long
Every year in a small hilltop village in Umbria, Italy, there’s an artistic egg contest. Winners receive cash prizes and their eggs become a permanent display in the Ovo Pinto egg museum (ovopinto.it). In 2012 this was Buckley Smith’s entry, Gioia(Joy) expressing the unfettered delight in soaring to our best expression. Enjoy the flight!
