Mechanical Cheetah

July 14th, 2009

“After some 60 hours of wizardry with steel and used parts, artist Andrew Chase has created a mechanical cheetah that evokes the grace and power of its real-world counterpart.
The cheetah is part of an ecosystem in a six-year art project called the ‘Timmy universe.’ The project has, so far, led to a mechanical giraffe and an elephant. Chase who has shown the giraffe at crafts fairs earlier had priced it at $6000. No word on how much the cheetah will cost.”
