Solid natural wood installation with hand-painted turtles. The turtle heads move towards each other using a small hand crank. Before they "kiss", they flinch back at the last moment. The relevant text can be enlarged by clicking on the image. The artist was originally an architect before devoting himself entirely to the construction of mechanical toy machines. His objects often contain amazing stories with irony and humor. The work was sold in 2006 by Galerie Handwerk, Munich. Size approx. 15 x 7 x 12.5 cm.
