This project was not born out of purely cerebral and strategic thinking. It was born during a conversation Martin and Felix had with a collector friend of theirs.
Who knows, maybe one day you too will be at the origin of a series proposed by Urwerk. We count on you to tell us about it.
By chance, these three interlocutors are from different cultures. Martin and Felix are from European cultures while their friend is from Asian culture. But they have this common point, this will to express time. Time that has captivated the greatest philosophers and the greatest civilizations. Resulting from the observation of celestial elements and cyclic events over a given period.
Like a sun, the indication of the hours passes, but does not disappear. Its course continues to help us capture time, indicating the distance traveled by the earth during its rotation from a specific point. Point of reference that is here the location of the Sun Stone in the National Museum of Anthropology in Mexico City.
At this precise point in 20 minutes, the earth travels during its rotation 524.89 km. And if you leave this indicator to go to its opposite, you will learn that in 20 minutes, the earth has traveled 35 740 km during its revolution around the sun.
