Real Time Grandfather Clock, The Son

Real Time Grandfather Clock, The Son

Grandfather Clock – The Son continues Maarten Baas’ performative regression towards childhood. His Grandfather Clocks, part of his Real Time series, were first made with traditional brass bodywork, and the artist performing as the titular grandfather behind the digital clock face. In Grandfather Clock – The Son, the artist is instead performing as a child, with the clock itself made from planks of wood in the manner of a tree house. As part of the Play Time exhibition, Baas assumes a Peter Pan-like character, representing his life-long balancing act between growing up and remaining a child.
