HUNTER COLLECTION – ACT 1 – PIECE  9  Unclean Beginning

Pin (sculptural-object), applied arts – anthropology jewellery design

2011–2012, Florence, Italy

Author: Milan Stamenovic

Handmade, unique piece (one of a kind)

Materials:
Tin elements, brass elements, antique pocket watch quadrant, semi-precious tones (cornelian, agates), lizard leather as backing

Provenance / status:

Private collection

Previously presented and acquired through Luisa Via Roma – Florence Italy

This piece functions as a private signal rather than a public emblem. Reduced in scale, it avoids display and instead establishes proximity. The watch element, stripped of its function, marks duration without measurement.

Its attachment to the body is deliberate and stable, reinforcing intimacy. The object becomes an internal marker—a reminder rather than a message.

The work exemplifies the Hunter collection’s refusal of spectacle in favor of sustained attention.
