This evening we bring you ‘Tempus Fugit’ a mechanical tableau by Simon Venus.
A very decorative piece, which comes to life at the turn of the handle.
Simon made this piece originally as a gift for Paul Spooner on the occasion of his 60th birthday.
There are three pieces available in this small edition.
Simon is a great automata enthusiast, collector and also automata maker.
Simon’s work has been shown in several automata exhibitions in the UK, most recently alongside Johnny White at the Scarborough Art Gallery.
