The Time Machine

In my next life I am determined to come back as a physicist. Or at least as someone who understands physics. I want so much to fully understand Einstein's theory of relativity- which overturned centuries of the Newtonian concept of time being linear and is separate from space. Einstein's theory posits that velocity must be taken into account in understanding the nature and flexibility of Time. This concept suggests, among other things, that time travel is possible.
So until my next gloriously intelligent life, I dream and paint and create bizarre assemblages such as this Time Machine- a winged clockwork stands upon a clock with no hands- locked away behind a pearly gate.
