Scroll down to the end of this page to watch a video of the fully functional prototype.
While moving to a new house our clock was damaged severely in transport, to a point where it's minutes- and seconds pointer fell of the central axis, and where just laying in the transparent bubble cover. Witnessing the random patterns that occurred with the hour pointer still rotating, the first concept for the Continue Time clock was born.
On this Continue Time clock, two out of the three pointers rotate around another pointer, instead of the central point on the clock face, as with traditional clocks. The resulting kinetic artwork, and fully functional clock, is continuously changing its shape during a full rotation of twelve hours.
Limited edition of 40 pieces + 1 artist proof.
While creating mesmerizing patterns on your wall the pointers are still read as with any traditional clock. The pointer attached to the clockwork shows the hours, the pointer attached to the hour pointer shows the minutes, the pointer attached to the minute pointer shows the seconds.
