# Dismantled Clock Art Daniel Weil's Exhibition Features Deconstructed Timepieces By Vasiliki Marapas | Published 2014-05-07 | Tech Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/daniel-weil References: [dezeen](http://www.dezeen.com/2014/05/06/daniel-weil-deconstructed-clocks-design-museum-exhibition/) & [designmuseum.org](http://designmuseum.org/exhibitions/2014/daniel-weil) Argentinian designer Daniel Weil has created a series of [deconstructed clocks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fold-watch) for this latest exhibition, titled 'Daniel Weil and the Art of Design,' and showing at London's Design Museum. Along with the clocks, the exhibition covers Weil's illustrious career, from his humble beginnings at the [Royal College of Art](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/audemars-piguet-x-kaws) to his [design consultancy](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rado-diastar) at Pentagram. However, Weil wants to make it clear that the show is more than just a trip down memory lane. Through it, he aims to elucidate the process behind his creations. Weil's interest in clocks dates back to the early days of his career. He explains his fascination by saying,"...I thought early on that the element of time is quite an important transformer of art and of science in the twentieth century but seemed to have bypassed our discipline. I use time as a subject to really represent the time we live in." ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.4/10 - Popularity: 32% | Activity: 32% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Tech](https://www.trendhunter.com/tech) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Deconstructed Clocks:** Opportunity for creating innovative, unconventional timepieces that challenge traditional clock design. - **Exploring Process:** Opportunity to showcase the design process behind creations, adding value and transparency to products. - **Time as a Subject:** Opportunity to incorporate the concept of time into various artistic and scientific disciplines for unique and thought-provoking creations. ### Where This Applies - **Design:** Disruptive innovation opportunity in the design industry to create new concepts and aesthetics for clocks and timepieces. - **Art:** Opportunity for artists to explore the representation and interpretation of time through their artwork, using Weil's exhibition as inspiration. - **Science:** Chances for scientists to study and utilize the concept of time in innovative ways, blurring the boundaries between art and science. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Concentric Timezone Wall Clocks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/analog-wall-clock.md) - [Intentionally Foggy Clock Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kehai-clock.md) - [Minimal Sculptural Clocks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/trace-line.md) - [Kinetic Pattern Clocks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/moir-clock.md) - [Mechanical Digital Mesmerizing Clocks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/triaxial-numechron-clock.md) - [Linearly Formed Wall Clocks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/linear-clock-concept.md) - [Kinetic Art Wristwatches](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/type-8-daniel-engelberg.md) - [Snow Landscape Sundial Installations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/light-time.md) - [Welded Stainless Timepieces](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/edition-003-clock.md)
