6 x 4 x 2.125 inches / 15 × 10 x 5 cmTurned and carved Pine, pigments on handmade wasli paper, Optium tru-vue museum acrylic 2026Artist Statement Time is not simply passing—it is calling us to act.Each carved clock becomes an archive of moments when ordinary people chose to act. The alarm clock is transformed from a familiar object into both a warning and a wake-up call, preserving moments when voices joined together to challenge injustice and demand change.These works are not only about protest; they are about responsibility. They ask what we choose to do with the time we are given, and whether silence becomes a choice of its own.A clock usually measures the passing of time. Here, it asks a different question:What are we doing with the time we have?
