A very small standing mobile. The bottom portion of the sculpture consists of two upright pieces of painted metal (each surface a different color--red, yellow, or blue) joined together to form a spire on which the "mobile" part is balanced. This upper mobile portion consists of a copper-colored tear-drop shape that rests on the spire, from which extends a series of thin wires, each ending in a small white-painted disc.
