TWINKLE
Materials: neon, aluminium
Dimensions: 300 x 300 cm



Twinkle is a clock that revolves around the movement and repetition of time in an endless circle from which the linear movements project into the room and disappear into the endless space. The work is a large wall-mounted clock where the time is marked by neon tubes. The centre features a hand-painted circular decoration with a functional pattern that indicates the hours and added hands that indicate minutes and seconds.

The neon tubes are bent by hand and placed on a background of laser-cut aluminium; the centrally placed decoration is hand-painted. In a comment on the piece, Astrid Krogh says, "It's a comment on the green wave we are currently experiencing, where time is passing, but what are we doing in the meantime?"
