20x20 MODULAR INTERACTIVE SCULPTURES
My beautiful, affordable, interactive, durable, cleanable, customizable, and harmoniously modular artwork provides installation flexibility for health care, memory care, senior living, and other settings. Contact me to discuss your needs!
These MODULAR, INTERACTIVE WALL SCULPTURES bring "therapeutic beauty" to nearly any space. They're ideal for corridors, waiting areas, therapy spaces, and more. They're also durable, cleanable (Cavi-Wipes), and customizable. The sculptures pictured in this video include Wandering Waves, Name that Tune!, Spinning Beauty, and Tic Tac Toe & It's a Match!
NAME THAT TUNE! invites viewers to interact on several levels as they can gently turn the durable music box handle to play a familiar tune. This tactile and auditory stimulation exercises their memory as they try to name the tune they're playing. Even the music boxes can be customized!
IT’S A MATCH! invites one or more people to match simple shapes in a popular memory exercise. Beautifully and durably created using solid birch, steel, and New Zealand pine.
WANDERING WAVES (HEAVY DUTY) invites viewers to interact by running their hands over its soothing forms, playing with the waves, creating new forms, and feeling its various textures. It’s built for demanding applications - with super-strong steel hinges and solid wood “waves.”
SPINNING BEAUTY invites viewers to interact by spinning its pieces and aligning them within each column as a simple therapeutic challenge.
TIC TAC TOE offers tactile, aesthetic, and memory-related benefits by inviting two people to play a simple, popular game - Tic Tac Toe! It's beautifully and durably-crafted with solid steel, birch, and New Zealand pine.
WANDERING WAVES (custom, large scale)
Wandering Waves INVITES viewers to INTERACT by running their hands over its soothing forms, playing with the waves, creating new forms, and feeling its various textures.

It’s also customizable, durable, and cleanable (Cavi-wipes).

Spinning Beauty INVITES viewers to INTERACT by running their hands over its beautiful, easily-spinning segments and - for a simple therapeutic challenge - aligning segments within each column. Size, aspect ratio, and colors are customizable to ensure this piece fits with an existing design aesthetic. It’s also cleanable, easy to install, and durable, being made from solid wood and steel.

OTHER INTERCTIVE ART (custom, large scale)
“‘Beautifully therapeutic’ fine art cultivates consecrated pleasure to bring healing, wholeness, and true human flourishing. It can do this through visual and other sensory experiences, like physical touch and interaction. In fact, fine art that stimulates a wide variety of sensory experiences has the potential to be extraordinarily ‘beautifully therapeutic.’ ”
2024 Environments for Aging Expo + Conference
I was honored that DAC Art Consulting showcased my interactive sculpture “Wandering Waves” at the April, 2024 Environments for Aging Expo + Conference in Atlanta. Together, we met the event’s goal to “offer the latest strategies and ideas for creating functional and attractive living environments that meet the needs of our aging population. During this three-day learning experience, attendees will network with peers while learning the latest innovations and best practices in senior-friendly design for long-term and residential care settings.”
