Time Pieces encourages others to stop thinking about time measurement as the fixed movement of seconds or hours, and to view it as a passage that can be understood through the lens of everyday moments and personal rituals. What happens in the interludes between newsworthy events, in those provisional moments of pause, is highlighted and preserved.

This inquiry considers multiple systems of measurement, from linear to emotional, and finds that time is not made up of equidistant increments, but of personal experiences. The work, inspired by everyday moments, is a collection of timepieces whose varying forms and media are determined by the stories they tell. Understated and generally small in scale, they encourage the viewer to linger and muse.

Drawing influence from the worlds of both science and art, Time Pieces assumes the balance between fact and feeling. It extends beyond basic translation of data to visual form, and instead endeavors to enrich viewer understanding through the process of interacting with and experiencing the work. Time Pieces hopes that by pausing to experience the modest narratives presented in the work, others will feel inspired to contemplate their own understanding of time.
