This art piece inspired by the masters of the golden age of Dutch painting, features two clocks an open green clock and a red closed clock symbolizing periods of life and death.
Time, the worlds rarest commodity is life's great equalizer. It is God's way of being fair - the rich, the poor and those in between all have the same 168 hours a week. Our understanding and resourceful use of our time greatly determines the quality of our lives. The open green clock signifies a maximized life and windows of opportunity or open doors. It is characterized by a strong sense of purpose, a desire to learn, compassion for others - humility, a deep engagement with material - mastery.
The red closed clock signifies death and lost time. It is characterized by wastefulness in every form, arrogance and the closing of windows of opportunity. As an equalizer, time eventually catches up with everyone. All organic and inorganic forms are subject to death and decay in time, "Tempus edax rerum" (Time the devourer of all things). The clock gives to us generously but comes knocking when it is time to move to another dimension. It also brings everything to the light - "For there is nothing hidden that will not be disclosed, and nothing concealed that will not be known or brought out into the open." Christ.
This art piece is a strong reminder that we don't have the luxury of eternity on earth, maximizing the use of our time is a prerequisite to success in life.
