First produced in Germany in the 15th century, pocket watches are time measurement machines and symbols of lived experience, memory, past, present, and future. Each painting in this series presents a pocket watch made by a master European watchmaker sometime within the 16th to 19th centuries. The paintings celebrate the watchmakers' meticulous craftsmanship and fine artistry and invite viewers to reflect on the human-made construct of time.
