Blackeye
The name alone warranted some attention - it's a striking flower that was bursting to be a clock.
I don’t really like neat, thought-out flower beds, I’d rather see some natural chaos and the beauty that brings. One of my first jobs as a kid was gardener to an elderly couple, I kept their garden neat and tidy which made them happy, but I wasn’t inspired.
Sigh, my parents were tolerant…
We had a large front garden on two levels, with various fancy houses all along our road.
When I turned 15, dad brought home several Honda S90’s which I promptly stripped and turned into two working bikes and, because I was too young, rode them around our garden, completely trashing it – how lucky was I! How unfortunate were our neighbours!
Blackeye is not quite symmetrical, but I think that makes it more natural - I find it satisfying to work out just where the symmetry isn't.
Limited Edition
I will only make up to 25 of this particular clock.
Each ‘Limited Edition’ clock is numbered; 25 will be the last in the series.
Clock Specifications
Approximately 332mm wide by 331mm tall.
UV printed on the back of 8mm clear acrylic.
The clock mechanism is very quiet (but not truly silent) with a sweeping second hand. It is battery driven and requires 1 AA battery (included).
The clock has a hanging hole at the back for you to hang it on a hook or nail.
UV Print
Utilising some of the most up-to-date printing technology in the world, Ultraviolet (UV) printing is a technique using special curing ink. Directly after being sprayed onto the reverse of the acrylic, the ink is hardened with UV light.
This production method offers high quality print, is fade and scratch resistant, and the finished print will have a more durable surface than a solvent based printing process.
UV printers are also more environmentally friendly when compared to other types of printer.
Packaging
All the packaging is compostable: the box; void filler (a starch-based material that dissolves harmlessly in water); packaging tape; paper clock face protector and clock hands guard - the card and paper are also suitable for putting in your recycle bin.
