This clock is designed to mark time with the rotation of four triangles: one takes 60 minutes to complete a rotation; the second, 45 minutes; the third, 30 minutes; and the fourth, 15 minutes. When the four triangles align to form a rectangle, they mark the hour. At midday on Mid - summer’s Day — June 21 — the sculpture should turn into a sundial that casts a rectangular shadow.
