Each object tells it’s own story individually, but as
Van Dusen Designworks combine these objects together they create a NEW story.
fish tale
FISH TALE is an imaginative art assemblage that harkens back to an earlier time. Its wonderful hand-made appearance is reminiscent of the antique trade signs from the 1900′s. This one-of-a-kind sculpture is made of vintage and antique found objects, as well as the artist hand-carved fish head made of Basswood. Some of the elements include an antique bicycle tank for the fish body and parts of a cross cut saw for the fins. Other components include an antique weight scale, large iron caliper and a wrought iron bracket for a lamp.
Game Time
GAME TIME! This large folk art assemblage is perfect for a game room. Its large whimsical appearance features a 1930s tabletop marble game as the centerpiece, framed with vintage billiard scoring beads. Along with several other antique, vintage and found objects, the other noticeable feature are the four red wheels. Those are actually authentic vintage Soap Box Derby wheels used on the derby race cars. Like other works by this artist, it also has a working quartz movement clock with a pendulum made from a vintage wood toy top.
This unique art assemblage is another creation from Van Dusen Clockworks and includes a name fob with the title of the piece and the artist signature plaque. As an art assemblage piece, this one is truly entertaining and guaranteed to be a conversation piece where every it hangs.
flying goddess
This distinctive sculptural timepiece made from various antique and vintage found objects, is called Flying Goddess. The starting point for this imaginative work of art is the antique war time era Graflex 4 x 5 camera, topped with a winged hood ornament from a 1953 Nash. The onetime Big Ben Alarm clock, now houses a working quartz movement clock with a black ring bezel. The clocks working pendulum was made from the base of a vintage Brass Flashlight. Other distinctive features include Vintage inspires Edison bulb housed inside an antique automobile trouble light and a cast iron claw foot base from an antique scale. The industrial machine-age look of this unique piece, would be right at home in an office setting or a cool residential loft.
