A human clock measures time as it passes, testing the limits of body and mind. I rend my own body an analogue machine, a tool for calculating time, the hours we work, the time of the space in which I find myself. My mind battles to remain focused on every minute, eight hours a day, for seven weeks. Αn ascetic act that nevertheless linked me with others through the overlay of time and space. The inability of the mind to follow the passage of time means mistakes are unavoidable, but notes taken on paper restore the spirit to the task at hand
