Are you stuck at a specific point in your life? Do you feel out of time, re-living the same day over and over again, and nothing ever seems to change? Then the “Birth Clock” is designed for you. It is designed to help you to come to a decision, to help you to change your life.
The Birth Clock by Alexandra Von Feldmann, is a fragile glass object containing a digital clock that is not working. Smashing the glass will make the clock start to work - time will start to pass again. Leave the object as it is, and you remain out of time, having the beautiful object as a reminder of your resistance to change. Break the object, and the clock will start to work, leaving you with the broken object as a reminder of your dramatic decision.
