Rose Clock by Sophia Shuvalova

Decorative and brightly colored acrylic painting on a circular canvas, finished with gold paint. The painting is of a clock and is ironic because of it as it is obviously useless for showing time. The painting suggests that in the contemporary technological age wall clocks are gradually becoming less and less usable, pushed away by the numerous devices with wide range of functions including the clock function. In today's world wall clocks are only remaining for decorative purposes and therefore a painting of one is just as valid. Besides, every static clock shows the right time at least twice every 24 hours.
