This page is for established creators who have sold their creations in the past (If that’s not you, see our open design competition page). This can include jewellery artists, fine artists, sculptors, ceramicists, digital artists and creators in other media (even watchmakers!).
We welcome collaborations with established creators who’s work fits our aesthetic range. If we’ve contacted you suggesting a collaboration, show us some of your recent work so that we can confirm that it’s a good fit with our aesthetic range. We can help you adapt your work to our watch designs, if that’s of interest to you.
If we’ve not contacted you yet, then please contact us, showing us a range of your recent work, so we can see if your creations are a good fit for UnconstrainedTime.
We will work with you to optimize the fit between your creativity and our time-piece design.
If you are used to working on a larger scale, consider techniques like 3D scanning followed by either 3D printing, precision CNC milling or maybe deep laser engraving.
Keep in mind that the time-pieces you create with UnconstrainedTime must be able to be worn in practice as watches. They need to be wearable without damaging people or clothing, without breaking or becoming imperfect from reasonable use, and the time-display needs to be visible in use.
You can also see this collaboration with us as a way to boost promotion of your work. You will be putting your work in front of a lot of people on our website, by collaborating with us. We plan to have our collaborative art-works shown in suitable fine art galleries or art jewellery galleries.
Make sure you keep any initial sketches of ideas, or notes you make, as well as documenting the creation process, because people love to see the development which goes into this kind of work. Showing your fans and ours, the whole sequence of how you get from initial ideas to a finished piece of artwork, can be great for promotions.
We will be able to give you various 3D templates for the watch body/case, currently available in 40mm and soon to be available in 30mm as well, which you can customize as desired and have 3D printed and/or precision CNC milled in your choice of material. We will send you a completed flex/rigid internal time-display printed-circuit-board (no soldering needed) and other suitable standard parts, with clear assembly instructions.
You will be listed as the creator of the watch. So on the back-plate will be the UnconstrainedTime name and logo, watch name (which you choose), by “your name”, then the serial number and a limited-edition number if appropriate.
The collaborator is responsible for making sure that their work does not violating anyone else’s copyright And the collaborator is responsible for all repairs, warranty etc. on any part they have made or modified (UnconstraedinTime is responsible for the electronic components and any part(s) supplied by us).
