About

Born and raised in the Lower East Side, ClockWork Cros is a Surrealist clockmaker whose work with the dimensions of time and personality raises questions about celebrity and achievement. His clocks challenge ideas about disposability, longevity and reputation, while exploring the consumption of celebrity.

Post-post-modern, ClockWork's clocks sail across media platforms and technology, but also look back to a time of the handmade. He hand makes his clocks in his native NYC studio, taking iconic images of historical figures - actors, athletes, authors, poets, musicians – and manipulating them digitally. He then hand cuts the images twice, before introducing the working clock movements into the eye of each image; creating functional working wall clocks that many have grown to know and love. Each clock is approximately 11" x 8" x 2" and contains quartz clock movements imported from his mother's native land of England.
