Trapped - Circuitry & Pocketwatch Shadowbox

Time is a liar, but it still holds the key.

Trapped is a mixed-media shadowbox built like a relic from a broken future—where circuitry replaced ritual, and even the clocks got tired of ticking. A vintage pocketwatch floats in suspended limbo, flanked by gold-toned filigree and set against salvaged circuit board lines like a spell gone digital.

This piece hums with liminal energy—the kind that makes you question what you’ve traded for productivity, and whether the seconds you’re watching are watching you back.
