Celebrating Creativity During A Pandemic
Sometimes it is hard to turn away from the "pit of despair" that seems to characterize life during the July 2020 pandemic reality in the United States.
But wait! It is not all doom-and-gloom! Artist Federico Tobon, of wolfCat Workshop, has used paper clips, cardboard, scraps of wood, and tape to create wonderful and whimsical little mechanical sculptures, some of which are featured in this post.
Tobon also created a video collection of some creations entitled "29 automata in 6 minutes" which you can see on YouTube or embedded below.
You probably have all the materials you need at home right now to put together your own pandemic plaything -- why not give it a whirl?
