Kinetic Art connects people because of its wonder and motivates them to discover how its made. It transcends all boundaries as an art form.

When the Arts Commission was forming their visioning plan their goal was to deliver an art event that transcended typical art fairs, brought international attention to the City of Boynton Beach, educated and engaged the public in the arts. Ralfonso shared similar goals and was often approached by educators to speak to students about how Kinetic Art is made. Ralfonso brought his experience with kinetic art projects. He collaborated with universities in China and The Netherlands to integrated the creative disciplines such as sculpture, engineering, science, physics, fabrication and the environment to create dynamic kinetic art sculptures. These have been huge successes and a learning experience for all involved.
Kinetic Art Organization co-founder, Rein Treifledt who has created functional solar driven kinetic art throughout the Nation and now Internationally was introduced to the collaborative. Rein’s interdisciplinary curriculum is the exact focus for integrated based learning that is now becoming a National standard.
