Victoria Sinkevych loves nicely decorated things. She is drawn to objects that we engage with every day. She believes that when such things are part of our lives, serving us for a long time, they become treasures.
With an education in architecture and art, Victoria worked for many years as a furniture and interior designer in Kiev, Ukraine. When her daughter was born, Victoria’s creative spirit shifted. She explored the technique of decoupage and was soon applying it to another creative endeavor that she’d been practicing for much longer. Victoria Sinkevych loves to make clocks.
As you can see, her collection is quite diverse. But all are built on the same quality timepieces, designed and manufactured by an American company with 40 years of experience. The same company also supplies her with unique variations on clock hands. Victoria takes great care to precision-mark her clock faces, adorning each with numbers to enhance its theme.
Her Cthulhu clock, for example, instead of numbers, features icons from H.P. Lovecraft’s fictional universe.
“When I mount a clock mechanism with numbers
and hands, place the battery, and the clock starts its quiet running – at that moment it seems to come to life, to start living!”
Victoria has endless ideas for future projects. In the past, she did not have a lot of time to implement them, because “first of all, I am Mom and wife.” But now that her daughter is a little older the entire family (husband, too) is collaborating, turning out new and surprising projects. She thinks someday soon they might create and decorate free-standing time pieces, like a table
clock, or a unique cuckoo clock.
