Airigami: Building a balloon robot

Larry Moss is full of hot air and visionary ideas. He combines the two with balloons and twists them into community-building art experiences. With a background in entertainment, applied math, and elementary education Larry breathes life into STEAM.

Kelly Cheatle specializes in elegantly loud design and is a materials and process fiend. Her artwork varies in scale by several orders of magnitude, from multi-story massive installations to sculptures small enough to sit comfortably on a penny.

Twistin’ Todd Neufeld, former patent attorney, impassioned by his art, is a most unique artist and entertainer. His career “popped” after the construction of a World Record balloon sculpture nearly made him miss the bar exam.

Lisa McIntire became interested in art at a young age, experimenting with assorted creative fields, from crochet to stained glass. Stumbling upon balloons, she learned that tubes of latex could form so much more than stick figure-like creations.

Drew Ripley strives to create the unexpected. As an entertainer, his desire is to leave a sense of whimsy and delight, demonstrating his skills as an expert balloon artist, skilled micro-cyclist, and talented table-side magician.
