About the Maker(s)
James Horecka A "Maker" since childhood, James has created many odd works, including several small paddle-wheel boats and a demountable ridable backyard roller coaster. James prefers art that includes experiences in both space and time: kinetic art that itself moves (mechanized), and/or larger constructions that one may move through or upon.
