"The Time Machine"









The movie Time Machine (1960) based on the novel by H.G. Wells and directed by George Pal, shows a time machine traveling through time using special effects called "time-lapse" and "claymation." Bruce was inspired by this scene and created his film installation work, The Time Machine. Images of a full-bloom flower dying and a dead flower blooming are each taken with different techniques and are projected with a 16mm film projector and video projector onto separate screens, one of which is in the shape of a clock. On each of the screens, the image of the two flowers are juxtaposed side by side. Here, Bruce takes up themes such as "time" and "life and death."
