FROM FOAM TO DUST
FROM FOAM TO DUST
The ''Foam'' Clock is the first object from the collection ''From Foam To Dust''. The collection reflects the themes of creation, time and mortality. Throughout our lives we search for meaning, the reasons for our existence and the inevitable end that comes to us all. In Lithuania on All Saints Day people gather to the local necropolis to pay their respects to the dead, the dark nights quickly become awash with candle light and the sound of prayers. The necropolis comes alive with the presence of the living. Many different elements are visible here, from the glow created by the candles to the flowers and other ''gifts'' left by the visitors at this time the the boundary's between life and death seem to blur.
Coming to terms with our existence and death is a struggle for many however perhaps these yearly trips to the necropolis help to provide perspective for the journey we all must take and these objects can be a daily reminder that we are not alone in our individual journeys through life.
THE CLOCK
Time is something that we all experience differently, yet we all exist inside it’s structure. The ‘‘Foam’’Clock form resembles that of a classic head stone and the circular hands are symbolic of our life cycle. The material embodies the earth we all inhabit, born of kinetic molten energy, frozen once reaching it’s mature form and once again returning to the earth after it's own life cycle is complete.
