About the art
Artist statement
Design by JAN PAUL
“Time is an illusion”
Most wall-clocks have the same basic shape: round. Also the same looking time-indication by
numbers or stripes.
“MOCAP” steps away from the basic. It’s appearance leans more to a piece of conceptual art,
then to a basic time-telling clock. Therefore it is also functioning as a wall mounted sculpture. When you stand in front of the clock: the numbers are clear and visible. When you walk around it: numbers slowly seem to dissolve, and appear to fall apart in little floating black spheres.
This optical illusion results in a striking and intriguing piece. Inspired by “MOTION CAPTURE”
technique used in the movie-industry.
Status: Unlimited edition , signed and numbered by maker.
material: composite / wood / metal
color: Clock-face finished in matted white, causing the black spheres to seemingly float in mid-air.
-Clock-hands finished in anthracite.
