“Ère carbone” (Carbon Era) is a series of wall clocks made from carbon waste. Lightweight and durable, these clocks are the result of advanced industrial waste recovery, reflecting our times : a period in history where technological progress clashes with environmental issues.

This kinetic effect makes the object timeless; designed to last, it can evolve from one space to another. In constant interaction with its luminous environment, the object constantly reinvents itself.

The coloured foam used on the back of the clock is made from recycled materials. This foam filters the sound of the clock, while also detaching the carbon disc from the wall to highlight it.

This sculptural object, hung on the wall, informs us about the present time while evoking, through recycled materials, current and future environmental issues.
