Braudel's Clock. Our Planet
2023
Series, 118 x 118 x 17 cm.
Collection: Dawid Radziszewski Gallery.
In the series Braudel’s Clocks the works are built from different layers of digital prints joined together by a clock mechanism. Each layer moves at a different speed, sometimes counterclockwise. The clocks depict motifs related to technological phenomena, human and non-human imageries, micro and macro universes. The title refers to the 20th century French historian Fernand Braudel. He framed the idea of universal time as a social construct: each system, structure, social group, and human or non-human entity has its own time and pace, entangled into one complex world evolving at various speeds.
