This artwork contrasts traditional African time-keeping with modern luxury watches. In the background, Vacheron Constantin and Blancpain watches represent the precision of modern timekeeping. In the foreground, a rooster symbolizes African traditions, where time was once marked by natural rhythms, like the rooster’s crow at dawn.
The piece highlights the difference between the organic, flowing concept of time in African culture and the mechanical accuracy of today’s watches, showing how time has evolved from nature’s heartbeat to precise engineering.
