The Meeting (once when you breathe in, once when you breathe out) Sculpture

The Meeting is a meditation on the importance of the concepts of recurrence and constancy in the context of our life journey. The inspiration for the piece came from the saying "Even a broken clock is right twice a day" and my intention with it is to bring the observer to the positive realization that even when things seem to be at their worst, truth can prevail if we stick to our course and principles. I had been pondering on the power of that saying for a while when we found that beautiful mantle clock one afternoon as I was walking with my son that someone was throwing out and realized that an actual vintage broken clock, that had traded, measured and experienced the reality of time was the perfect and only truly sincere medium to illustrate and revise this concept, I refer to it as and IO ( Intervened Object) and have incorporated this concept to my work since then. In the case of "The Meeting” the ageless truth that Shakespeare brings to us in the voice of Polonius : “To thine own self be true” was carved on the front of the piece as part of the intervention to support the conceptual statement , then integrated with a charred patina. An encapsulation of crushed Lapis Lazuli in epoxy resin was also done over the face of the clock covering the hours, so to speak. The point of convergence chosen as a resting place for the hour and minutes hands is 12 o’clock, the moment when two become one, was also intentionally chosen for this purpose. With this piece and my work in general I seek to internalize and digest the substance of the concepts via the process of creation.
