Joost de Munnik & Ruud van den Eijnden

A furniture maker and a mechanism specialist build an entrance piece around an inherited clock movement. Oak, walnut and ceramic are cut to the rhythm the brass keeps; a bonsai above holds a slower measure against it. Presented by SPoT Den Haag, guest at Maison d'Artiste.

Joost de Munnik and Ruud van den Eijnden built this piece around something that was already running. A clock movement from a family heirloom — brass, worn, still keeping time — became the point from which everything else was measured: the oak, the walnut uprights, the cone that holds a bonsai above a floor it never touches.
