Pine mobile, 'Tropical Seagull'
Soaring through the air with stately elegance, this seagull makes a fascinating mobile. A welcomed sight in many maritime shores, the tropical seagull can be distinguished by its pristine white feathers that turn into black towards the edge of its wings. Raul Vinelli carves this bird from local pinewood and uses enamel paints to characterize it. The seagull is suspended from nylon strings.
