“Other possibilities In this class, I want to introduce you to other possibilities that can serve as inspiration for other projects. Here, we have a wing, like the one we built during the course. In that case, I used a fabric to give the final finish. You can also use other types of wood. Here, I have solid woods of different colors and densities. These woods are more natural than plywood. Using other types of wood will already transform your project. In addition to the materials, I want to present here other works that use some of the mechanisms we saw in this course.

A course by Eduardo Salzane
Graduated in social communication from Unesp, artist Eduardo Salzane has already worked with authorial photography, puppet theater and some circus modalities before specializing in the universe of automatons — sculptures that move from a crank.
He has given workshops at different institutions throughout Brazil and his works have been exhibited in several galleries in the interior of São Paulo and at the Ecomuseum of Itaipu, in Foz do Iguaçu. Currently, he develops his work with reused wood and creates a universe of poetry in motion in each of his pieces.
