Time to Remember - The Armistice Watch
Exhibition of Commemorative Artwork 'Time to Remember' - The Armistice Watch. Over a three years period I have constructed an Armistice Watch, based loosely on a WW1 period timepiece, aimed at commemorating the Armistice and Ceasefire Centenary on 11th November 2018. This is a contemporary artwork created as a fitting tribute to those who gave the ultimate sacrifice in order for us to enjoy the lifestyle of today. This will be on loan to the Musée de l'Armistice in Compiègne, France, site of the signing of one of the most important documents of modern history. This will be in-situ and on display for the Centenary and for 6 months afterwards. The Musée de l'Armistice forms part of the Memorial de l'Armistice, including the Glade of the Armistice‚ which 100 years ago paved the way for peace. This is a personal artistic homage to those who gave the ultimate sacrifice irrespective of race, colour or creed, whose loss is our gain. My wish is that this can be an interactive part of this Centenary, opening avenues of Remembrance, Reflection, Respect, Reaction, Reviews and Response. The Armistice Watch will be available in future for further exhibition at various locations World-wide.
