Eduardo Milieris
Watchcraft
"In this collection I try to convey a concept of rebirth and life given back to a long lost piece of history. I work on silver, copper, and brass in the same ways they were used hundreds of years ago, preserving a tradition of craftsmanship."
Uruguay-born artist Eduardo Milieris has been fascinated by the integration of art and time since he was a child. Today he combines art with time in his beautiful limited-edition watches.
Milieris' designs are "industrial chic": made from recycled metals, embellished with sterling silver, copper, and brass. The metals are distressed and oxidized to give the watches a look akin to "buried treasure." Finally, the artist paints each watch face by hand, giving it a distinct appearance. "My timepieces suggest the reality of constant change and evolution."
