Time

In 2016 I created another series with the theme of ”Time”. It included 9 bronze sculptures with clocks. This series was intended to motivate the viewer to be more present and aware. 

”Present” is about awareness. If one pays attention to the present and be in the moment and aware then the fact that we have no control on time becomes more tolerable. My daughter was the inspiration for this sculpture and this is actually her.

Present

“Yesterday” is a sculpture of a man on a phaistos disk, which is a disk from the island of Crete dating from the 2^nd millennium BC. The purpose and meaning of the signs on it are still unknown so it is a mystery. William Shakespeare was the inspiration behind this sculpture with his poem in Macbeth where he says:

“All our yesterdays have lighted fools

The way to dusty death.

Out, out, brief candle!”

I wrote these words on to the disk he is on. So this sculpture is about our relentless search for the past compromising today.
