Lost time

Lost time

LOST TIME (time lost)
The sculpture is all that remains of a clock locked in stone and immersed in water.
The stone split suggests a fossil of a mechanical object.
The watch case is recognizable even if shattered. The hands and numbers no longer exist, the time is no more.
The stone traps and hugs if the clock keeps him still, paralyzed, stuck on the bottom of the water.
The clock can be replaced, but never recovered.
The lost time, despite all the efforts of man, can no longer be lived, it is pretty much gone.
Emerge regret for what has been lost forever, of what can never be found again.
The man does everything to shake off the sense of desperation that bites the intestine, making poison all the food that he eats.
The anxiety to recover the unrecoverable makes no sense, yet the man chasing daily vain hope to recapture what could be and was not.
The work is small, the sum of its parts seems like a long story full of history, which comes from far away, such as a finding that has yet to be discovered.

Suggestivo, affascinante ed inquietante al punto giusto.
Complimenti ed in bocca al lupo!
