fluoro Giveaway: Swatch X Alexander Gorlizki Limited Edition Watch

fluoro are giving away a new Swatch Art Special Limited Edition watch by artist Alexander Gorlizki. The piece, titled Sliding Doors saw Gorlizki take his inspiration from the classical Indian architectural form of ornamental screen carving. There are a limited 4,567 numbered pieces worldwide.

For over 30 years Swatch has invited contemporary artists from every genre to display their unique artistry on a Swatch watch as part of the Swatch Art Special Collection. Working closely with painters, musicians, designers, and other progressive artists, Swatch gives each artist a platform to illustrate their personal interpretations and love of ‘art for the wrist’ in the form of a one-of-a-kind, special edition Swatch.

The latest artist to join forces with Swatch is Alexander Gorlizki.

British-born Alexander Gorlizki works in a diverse range of materials from paper and cloth to photography, sculpture and video in the US and India. His work often depicts whimsical iconographies with geometric patterns, mixing traditional Eastern and Western designs and colour schemes to create elaborate works of art.

In developing the new Swatch Art Special Limited Edition, Sliding Doors, Gorlizki took his inspiration from the Jali, the classical Indian architectural form of ornamental screen carving, typically done in wood, stone, and marble. Gorlizki’s geometric patterns create an intricate puzzle enriched with mesmerising detail and a modern, vibrant palette. The interlocking designs cover every surface of the front, with engraving on the timepiece and even along its edges, buckle and loop. The same visual elements are also extended to the special packaging for the watch.

“Collaborating with Swatch presented an irresistible challenge to create a highly contemporary, wearable design that still utilizes handmade skills and traditional forms,” Gorlizki said.

Limited and numbered to a cleverly uneven 4,567 pieces, there are indications of Gorlizki in every detail. Sliding Doors will be officially released in Australia in October 2014.
