The Hands of Home

The four clocks in the work represent my family members, each corresponding to their respective eras, with the hour and minute hands pointing to their birthdays. The piece combines ink and colored pencils, contrasting the black-and-white trees with the colorful clocks. Some branches are carefully cut with a craft knife, allowing the artwork to be placed within natural settings, where real leaves become part of the composition. This interaction between the artwork and its environment extends the space and meaning, exploring family connections, the passage of time, and the integration of life with nature.
