Colorful Patchwork Dial Clock

Twelve printed panels, each one a different scrap

A face split into twelve wedges, each printed as a separate scrap of aged material: weathered blue boards, rusted metal, torn paper, faded red paint. One numeral sits on each wedge and no two share a typeface, so the ring of hours reads as a collection rather than a set. A small printed rosette covers the centre.

The whole thing sits behind glass in a plain black rim, which is what holds the collage together. Without the rim the twelve panels would pull apart.

One version, in black.
