Tinguely similarly constructed motorized kinetic sculptures from assembled mechanical components that celebrated movement and transformation over time. His meta mechanical works share Bury's fascination with motorized wooden and metal structures that blur the boundary between sculpture and living machine.

Calder pioneered kinetic sculpture using painted metal and motorized or wind driven constructions that explore movement as a core sculptural element, much like Bury's motorized wooden forms. Both artists treated time and motion as fundamental materials in their abstract three dimensional works.

Lye created motorized kinetic sculptures from metal and mixed materials that used mechanical energy to produce hypnotic, rhythmic movement in abstract forms. His focus on the visceral experience of mechanically driven motion aligns closely with Bury's exploration of slow, transformative sculptural movement.
