Time Signals (2016)
Watch, Time signal, Lights, PC, Speaker

A chandelier with a countless number of used wristwatches.
Light bulbs are positioned as clock dials and flashes on and off as to responding to the time signal streaming from a speaker. The sound and light stimulate audio and visual senses of the audience and raise consciousness of the time. Even though there are a number of watches, the time passes equally to everyone. 
This work is about returning the time to nobody by creating a piece using a collection of wristwatches once possessed by someone.
