24h Linda is a hybrid between a light-box photograph and a mural clock. Once the viewer has detected the indicators of the hours and minutes (her beauty spot and her left eye) they will be able to read the time. The porn actress’ face undergoes various distortions just as everybody experiences during a busy day’s work! The piece reverts to its original likeness twice daily, at noon and midnight.

Robert Stadler
Robert Stadler was born in Vienna in 1966. The designer has always been drawn to the details of objects and the narratives they evoke. He studied design at the Istituto Europeo di Design in Milan before attending the École Nationale Supérieure de Création Industrielle in Paris in the late 1980s. He has continued to work in Paris ever since.
