An absurdly proportioned door and door way.
Stemming from the top of the door jam is a series of object which chronicle the use of materiality throughout human history. From stone, to wood, metal and coming full circle with a 3-D printed stone, this arrangement suspends a grandfather clock mechanism with a working video monitor substituted for a pendulum. This video is only visible as seen through the peephole in the door. The intentionally obscured video shows a pendulum in perpetual swing.
