About this work

This painting shows three clocks floating in a blue sky. One clock is normal, but the other two are melting or breaking apart. Bright colors like pink, yellow, and red mix with the clocks, making it look messy and strange. The background is a light blue, like a clear sky. The clocks don’t all match up—the numbers are scrambled. The artist used a special frame that makes the clocks look like they’re moving when you tilt it. Look up lithography to see how this print was made.
