Generally, Wooster Collective covers street art, not modern art; generally, cuckoo clocks are made out of wood, not rubber. Everything seems turned on its head today.
Indiana-born artist Nathan Skiles has created these crazy cuckoo clocks spotted at the New York SCOPE art fair yesterday. The first one is aptly named 'Roll it Fast, Burn it Slow, Put on the Shades so the Boss Don’t Know.' The clocks are made out of peacock feathers, rooster’s comb, trucker hat and caulk, corrugated plastic, and foam rubber.
I doubt if they actually work and coo the time...
