About Andrew

The Mobile Sculpture is a unique blend of engineering and artistry. I believe that a mobile should be more than just a series of repetitive shapes balanced at the end of wires. The structure should be a cohesive composition of form, color, and motion. Each part is essential to the whole, every connection carefully chosen to choreograph the interaction of the various elements, designing by intent instead of necessity. I strive to give each of my sculptures a life of their own, a poetry of motion in space. Choreographed yet random, sophisticated yet playful, whimsical yet meditative – a tangible expression of infinite possibility.

 

 

Andrew Cronan is a native of Silver Spring, Maryland who has recently moved to Surfside Beach, South Carolina. He has been making mobile sculptures professionally for over 20 years and has been featured in numerous gallery shows and exhibitions in the Mid-Atlantic region. He has created sculptures for private homes, churches, schools, and restaurants. Not only does Andrew make traditional abstract mobile sculptures in a style reminiscent of the great Alexander Calder, but he also creates figurative mobiles in a style that is uniquely his own. Additionally, he constructs mobile sculptures using found objects — for yet another twist on the traditional mobile.
