In darkness we lose our familiar reference points. The sun is hidden, colours dim, and the sense of time shifts. The moon, reflecting sunlight, offers an alternative way of perceiving it — diffuse, fluid, mystical.
MOONWATCH is a lunar clock whose mechanism is governed by the movement of light. A central truss with twelve arms is surrounded by mirrors. Light lines reflect, refract and form volumetric structures in space. The sounds of the mirrors spread through the room across twelve channels. We hear the unique voice of each element. The installation lives by its own rhythm. Light unfolds through time: each hour opens as a separate scene, with short impulses between them.
A clock is a sign — a universal code of time: a dial, twelve divisions, circular movement. The moon is a symbol. It creates a feeling of time. Each phase sets a rhythm.
MOONWATCH exists at their intersection — when a mechanism ceases to count and begins to create. When the utilitarian becomes ceremony.
