Maintenance guru by day and metal sculptor by night. I am speaking of Jim Jenkins who has led our maintenance department for over ten years. Soon after I began working here, I learned that Jim was the artist who sculpted the ring-like structure called the Deus Ex Machina/Ego Eigenstate just outside the main door of the Santori Aurora Public library. Today, if you visit the Aurora Public Art’s Gallery, you can see some of Jim’s other sculptures and also works by Lindsay Olson and Georgia Schwender. The Exhibition, which runs through September 25, is called “Accelerating Inspiration Art from Fermilab.” The piece pictured here is called Quench. A Quench occurs when a magnet in a particle accelerator loses its superconductivity. The sound made by this process was captured by Derek Plant of Fermilab in the 1990’s. It may be the only sound of Quench ever recorded. Jim’s interpretation of this event is extremely imaginative and entertaining. Much of what Jim used to fabricate the piece is scrap material repurposed and reimagined as sculptural elements. The list of materials used to create this work is a story all of its own!
