One day artist Ief Spincemaille accidentally observed that the hand of his watch perfectly followed the position of the sun when he slowed his watch down for half of its speed. Amazed by this ‘forgotten’ link between his watch and the sun, he decided to make a clock that shows us the exact position of the sun in the sky, based upon the mechanism of an ordinary wall clock. A clock that always points back to its origin: the sun. And this every day and night of the year.
