BOVET - SIHH 2019 (Salon de la Haute Horlogerie - Genève)
← Previous ← . . . . . → Next →
For their booth in the SIHH trade show, I offered Bovet 1822 to cast the hands of eight of their craftspersons, each of them presenting a watch in a display case. Each of them was presenting a watch in one of the display cases. It was important to me to cast the hands of these craftsmen as they are dedicating their lives to these watches and are the ones that can show more tenderness towards these. On the other hand, recognizing their work, their talent and the beauty of the the workers' hands seemed to be something symbolically important.

Each pair of hands, cast in acrylic resin and gilded with gold leaves, has been placed in a different display case in order to present a watch. Telling a personal story, different and homogeneous at a time, highlighting each watch, getting the gilding to emphasize each detail, each pore, each palmar crease were some of the challenges of this project. -
