About this artwork
Featured in international exhibitions worldwide. Collected across the UK, Europe, Asia, and the United States. Over a decade specialising exclusively in contemporary horological fine art.
This piece captures the legendary AP - an icon that revolutionised luxury watch design by merging precious metal with industrial boldness. The integrated bracelet, the aggressive dial architecture, the unmistakable silhouette rendered in sculptural acrylic.
I'm… drawn to this design because it represents defiance. When it debuted, critics called it audacious. Now it's revered. Through heavy impasto and palette knife technique, I build layers that mirror its contradictions: refined yet brutal, elegant yet aggressive, polished steel against raw texture.
The octagonal bezel creates geometric authority. Dark tones dominate with flashes of gold breaking through. Thick palette knife strokes give the work physical weight;this isn't decoration, it's a statement piece
