the mind and machinery-makes the heart beat fast;the most contemporary of mindful art sees both backward and forward-contributions. not a line is repeated;it's simplicity has seduced nature herself....how many pairs of legs?despite its plastic exterior...there are such attributes that say:"we are moving forward despite the impending tsunami. -

Dear Theo what inspired me about your work was your commitment over time and the brief comment on what it must have been like to originally have created the world as we know it. Your creatures are exciting. I am glad you are here at this time doing what you do thank you.....love from Zeer in Tasmania, Australia. -

What's inspiring about this video is capturing this moving art in a way that
transports me to the location. I can feel the wind, hear the art creature moving,
feel the sand, the temperature. The Art itself demonstrates perseverance by the artist, and co-creating on so many levels. -

This is absolutely incredible! To watch from mere 'baby steps' to walking without 'dad's' help is amazing and to think "they will be walking the beaches" after Theo Jansen, the Dutch creator, is gone, is remarkable!! -

I admire people who think outside the box. Mr. Jansen's creations are both inspiring (because they are made from recycled materials), but they are lithe and lovely to watch.
