Whimsical Jumbles

The mysterious collection of artefacts you can see housed in the secret compartments of this old clock, tell the curious tale of ‘Whimsical Jumbles’ – these words have been chronologically extracted from the Charles Dickens classic work of Master Humphrey’s Clock and are now printed onto the scroll.

The words forming the new narrative are presented on a scroll, along with the page, line and word numbers, which now resemble an ancient ledger - each word can be plotted and verified in the accompanying book.

This piece of work was created in direct response to the collection of watches belonging to Robert Halfon MP - May 2014.
