Sundial - Shadow of Time: When Time Was Told by Shadows
In the age of digital timekeeping, we rarely look to the sky to know the hour.
This ceramic sundial recalls a time when shadows once carried knowledge of time. The dial is marked with the traditional Chinese twelve Earthly Branches time system, reconnecting time with earth, light, and human observation.
As sunlight moves across the surface, time is no longer only displayed — it is experienced.
