The 'ClockClock 9' wall clock has been designed by Stockholm-based artists Humans since 1982 as a functional decor solution that can be used for keeping time and exploring the very nature of time itself. The unit has a shapeshifting design that includes a series of hands that will change continuously throughout the day and display the actual time at specific intervals. This relates to how we can view time and the ways that we can shape time into working for us instead of feeling like a burden.
The 'ClockClock 9' wall clock features a range of animations that last between one and two minutes each, and is a limited-edition offering that will only see 50 hand-signed pieces created.
