Michaela Crie Stone lives and works in Rockport, Maine, where she creates pieces that push the parameters of function by blurring the lines between art, craft, and design.
Parametrichouse: In this Installation art & Mechanism example we take a look at the Solstice , the Kinetic Clock .Created by London-based design studio Animaro, Solstice is a clock that turns the passing of time into a moving artwork.
It gradually changes shape throughout the day, opening and closing like a flower. Solstice is the second in a range of products from Animaro that seeks to celebrate mechanical movements and bring back a closeness with the objects in our home.
At midday, when the sun is higher in the sky the clock is at its largest. At 6pm, when the sun is lower the clock is at its smallest.
