My work as a sculptural clockmaker is a fusion of traditional craftsmanship and contemporary design. For years, I have been captivated by the art of clockmaking, a field that marries precision with creativity. Much of my inspiration stems from my time as an antique clock restorer, where I developed a deep appreciation for the intricate mechanisms and artistic ingenuity of historic timepieces.
At the core of my practice is a fascination with horology—the science of timekeeping. With its 700-year legacy, horology is a remarkable convergence of art, science, mechanics, and technology. It tells stories of human innovation and determination, and has contributed to advancements across various disciplines. My work seeks to honor this legacy while reimagining it for the modern world.
I am passionate about preserving the traditions of my craft. I believe that maintaining the skills and knowledge associated with clockmaking is not just an act of historical preservation, but a vital link to our cultural heritage. My work celebrates the tactile, hands-on relationship with materials and the enduring ingenuity that these time-honored techniques represent. Through my clocks, I aim to bridge the past with the present, offering a fresh interpretation of a timeless art form.
