For the exhibition Changes of the Delftsche Kunstkring, which will be on June 29-30 in Delft with a couple of my sculptures on display, I have been asked to contribute to a collaborative sculpture with five other artists. The wish was to have a carousel mechanism with portraits which can be turned around.  

Here some photos of one of the rotors I made of steel with six sides as a hexagon.

Three such rotors I placed at different heights along a vertical tube.

Then the other five artists started painting: six different heads for the upper rotor, six different bodies for the central rotor, and six different legs for the lower rotor. By turning the rotors one by one, various interesting and funny combinations of a person are obtained.
