Marking Time

Time defines our very existence and our perception of time is at the heart of human consciousness. However, how we express that perception is not the single uniform process that modern timekeeping would suggest. Many of us have the sense that we are measuring it precisely with digital watches, phones and other mechanical and electronic time keepers; yet we are divorced from other more significant markers of the passage of time: the passenge of the sun, the shadows, the seasons, the planets. Here is a selection of the work Saskia made exploring and celebrating the natural markers of time she observed.
