The Oblique Clock by Science & Sons


This stylish clock shows the abstract nature of time. It’s not a clock but it’s more an art object, it was created by Science & Sons. The Oblique Clock is made of maple, laminate, a clock mechanism, digital driver and a stepper motor, measures 48″ x 48″ x 5″. It’s a part of the collection of works by Science & Sons. By reinterpreting the existing elements of a clock face (hands and angles) this clock becomes a kinetic sculpture. I like the elegant geometry, each second shows us the fluid nature of time.




Behind the clock face, the custom mechanical movements required to drive the piece were engineered from the ground up. Currently each piece in this series is priced at $3900.00 CAD.
