England, circa 1960

A 1960s - 1970s kinetic modernist wooden sculpture, with interlocking wooden links creating an atom like structure, with loose dark stained wooden balls within.

Possibly by on of The Systems Group artists. The group was formed in 1969 by Jeffrey Steele, David Saunders, Michael Kidner, Jean Spencer and Malcolm Hughes, who had been influenced by Kenneth and Mary Martin, Anthony Hill, Richard Allen, Peter Lowe and Swiss architect and designer Max Bill.

They developed canvases and constructions organised in arrangements free from painterly 'accident', subjective sensation or emotion, exhibiting regular constants and variables.

The relationship between probability, distraction and chaos on the one hand, and regulations, law and order on the other was, however, considered to be of fundamental import in establishing an appreciation of the forces unlocked by the complexities of pictorial elements conforming to a system.
