If you’re someone who loves the great outdoors, hunting, or just appreciates a one-of-a-kind piece of art, Open Season is exactly what you’ve been looking for. This sculpture mixes the fine art of engineering with the wild spirit of hunting in a way that’ll catch the eye and stir the imagination of anyone who lays eyes on it.
At the heart of Open Season are two spinning arms that mimic the look of gun sights, rotating around a silhouette of a duck. The motion’s smooth, but seemingly unpredictable—just like that tricky duck trying to stay out of sight. It’s a perfect mix of art and action, sure to keep folks entertained while sparking plenty of curious questions.
Made from imported Baltic birch, Open Season lets the natural beauty of the wood shine through, with no paint to hide its rich grain. Each piece is carefully sanded and stained, then treated with several coats of tough urethane to protect it from the sun and humidity—keeping that lovely, raw wood look looking sharp for years to come.
The parts that carry the hunting theme are made from polymer-coated aluminum and clear acrylic, so they’ll hold up over time while still looking elegant. For the moving parts, I’ve gone with polished brass pins instead of the usual wooden pieces you see in lesser-quality sculptures. That adds a little extra touch of luxury and, more importantly, guarantees this piece will last.
The motion’s powered by a stainless steel constant force spring, which gives smooth, steady energy through a steel spring belt—way better than those rubber belts that wear out over time. This way, Open Season keeps its fluid motion for years without skipping a beat.
Winding up Open Season is simple as pie: just turn the lower pulley counterclockwise about 22 times, and you’ll watch it come to life, with a gentle push from the spring. As the longer arm slows and reverses, it triggers another push, setting off a continuous, mesmerizing motion that keeps on going.
With its big presence and the endless motion that keeps it fascinating, Open Season is sure to be a conversation starter wherever you put it. It brings the beauty of the outdoors right into your home, wrapped up in a fine piece of art.
