In this captivating sculpture by Salvador Dalí, the iconic image from his renowned painting takes center stage. Titled the same as the painting, this artwork features a simple yet profound composition. A melting watch, a symbol often associated with Dalí's exploration of time, hangs delicately over the branch of a tree. Through this imagery, Dalí conveys the concept of the fluidity of time and its inseparable connection to space. According to the artist's own explanation, time is not rigid but rather intertwined with space, constantly in motion. Delving into the human perception of time, Dalí explores how our experiences can alter our perception of its passing. When engrossed in enjoyable or absorbing activities, time seems to fly by, while moments of boredom can make it feel like time drags on. The melted and distorted watch in the sculpture represents the subjective nature of time. It no longer fulfills its conventional role of measuring the passage of time; instead, it becomes a symbol of the malleability and subjectivity of this elusive concept. Crafted using the renowned Lost Wax Method, this sculpture exhibits exceptional artistry and attention to detail. The bronze sculpture is skillfully mounted on a marble base, adding stability and enhancing its visual appeal. Signed by the renowned artist Salvador Dalí himself, this artwork invites contemplation and reflection on the intricate relationship between time, perception, and the fluidity of existence. A remarkable addition to any art collection, it serves as a testament to Dalí's imaginative exploration of the mysteries of the human experience.
