From Gary’s Eskimo Kisser seriesGary Schott is a jeweler, artist, and metalsmith.

Gary creates small kinetic sculptures with a certain whimsy and playfulness. Though certainly not of the high-tech of my interests, Gary’s work succinctly captures both the essence of playul design and the connection of play to intimacy. Whether it’s millions of transistors or three gears, playful technology is wondrous.
