Painting description

The painting depicts a clock with an exceptionally old-fashioned look, as if it had been extracted from another time. It is dominated by shades of grey mixed with browns and subtle flashes of gold. The numbers are large and slightly unevenly spaced, which adds a rustic, almost post-apocalyptic character to the whole. It is worth noting how the surface is covered with numerous recesses and discolourations, and the gears visible in the background make us think about the complex mechanics of time. The atmosphere of the painting is heavy and nostalgic. The artist used a technique here that resembles a mixture of relief and collage. He used thick layers of paint and incorporated various materials into them, which gives a three-dimensional effect and a slightly overwhelming weight. The aura surrounding it seems full of reflection on the passage of time. Looking at the work, the viewer may feel anxiety, but also a kind of fascination with how time shapes matter. Wow, the clock looks like something from a pirate story! These are the emotions it can evoke in a range of recipients. It is a painting that grabs your attention and makes you think. You wonder what story these worn numbers and rusty gears tell. In all its unworn subtlety, the work shows that beauty can be found even in decay and destruction. Every detail encourages you to take a closer look and reflect on the fragility of time.
