The object imitates both; the mechanism of a pair of compasses as a drafting tool used for depicting space and the functions of a clock as a tool for measuring time.

Either way, its function is disrupted. Movement and rhythm are random and hectic; each hand is moving in its own multi-dimensional path as the graphite edges leave their traces on the wall. These two linear units are trapped in their own motion, struggling to complete a circle. Exhibited alongside diagrams charting histories of migration in the artist’s own family, the object also illustrates the difficulty of connecting through time and space.
