The clocks have more hands, than usual. Many people told me this. First of all, this clocks does not measure time. Just a few people recognised, that the angles of the clockhands are also impossible, since the short and the long hand of a clock is not indenpendent from each other. (For instance the long hand and the short hand never points togethet to six.)

The artwork's surface does not represents one time. The clocks has the normal number of hands, and the same hand is represented more than one time, in different moments of time. So right placed clocks could show this image, if we could see them togeher in different times. This position are illustrated by the animation.
