Roger Wood is a self-taught artist who lives
and works in an old factory in Canada. A yard sale and flea market junkie, he madly collects odd, forlorn, mysterious,
lonesome, intriguing, usually weathered and tarnished things -
things with a history. There are several hundred boxes and
drawers now, brimming with ineptly catalogued artifacts. Nothing
is safe or sacred; his entire studio/home and even his garden
have become a large environmental assemblage. |

He personally designs these unique
timepieces and fabricated each clock one at a time. Their
whimsical nature reflects Wood's belief in the importance of
play and child-like wonder in a world that is too often serious
and too seemingly chaotic.
