Static Art


I have being pondering upon this idea in recent time. The very idea of true moving art, seem rather an absurd notion.
The final art piece is static to be displayed for events and art collectors. Created to convey movement and impression but its physical aspects is motionless.
Then this notion evolves into the physical reality and the artist existence in his 3 dimension world.
My reality is surrounded by static objects and utilities, I am the only moving being the rest of my habitat is solid manufactured objects. This is my indoor reality. When I am out of my enclosure the reality invokes movements and the motion of journey. We are always moving.
Our existence is due the revolving Earth and the elements of the surrounding sun and moon. The rivers and oceans are always moving. The wind an invisible to the eyes but we can feel its force moving, experiencing its passing effects.
Then the element of sun and source of heat and power generator for the invention of trains, automobiles and airplane.
The 3 elements of
Water, Wind and Fire
Convey movement.
Yet we still produce endless static objects.
The only true moving art is theatre and life performance. Followed by Photography, which gave birth to modern cinema. Both convey a film impression of that precise time. 
A life like impression of reality but its 2 dimensional concept.
So my thoughts wonder about creating an art in motion.
How? 
When?
 Is it possible?
 Or it’s just a manifestation of scattered mind?
