For this fortis artist edition, I was inspired by the visuals and techniques found in chemistry laboratories and adapted the scientific process of ‘ambering’ to create a new way of crafting a time piece, printing onto the glass surface instead of the dial.’the limited edition watch will be unveiled by at, march 23-28, 2017.
