  • Catalogue Essay

    For its first contribution to the TimeForArt auction, Baltic is offering this one-of-a-kind Prismic model co-created with artificial intelligence to celebrate the intersection of tradition and technology.

    This experiment uses innovative AI-powered design to generate a unique dial inspired by natural waves, contrasting organic shapes with the machine-learning process.

    Using precision milling, the three-dimensional quality of the artwork adds a layer of depth that plays with light beautifully, bringing the watch to life from various angles.

    For Baltic, AI is not an end-product, but a new tool for designers to push ideas beyond traditional norms, leading to unexpected solutions that can be integrated as part of future iterations.

    Art is about the human touch that brings this whole concept together, and the Baltic Prismic Time for Art edition is a statement that although technology is evolving at an increasing speed, the artist will always remain at the center of horological creations.
