Peter Kennard Hiroshima Clock - Black - T shirt dress

The Peter Kennard’s Hiroshima Clock dress is the Swiss knife of all dresses - it’ll look great almost anywhere.

The comfortable oversize fit proves that comfy can also be stylish.

Peter Kennard’s Hiroshima Clock is a haunting photomontage that encapsulates the urgency of nuclear disarmament. The image features a starkly cracked clock face, frozen at the moment the atomic bomb detonated over Hiroshima - 8:15 AM on August 6, 1945. The broken surface symbolizes both the shattering impact of nuclear warfare and the irreversibility of such destruction. By isolating time in this way, Kennard transforms a mundane object into a powerful memorial, urging viewers to confront the ongoing threat posed by nuclear weapons.

The piece is emblematic of Kennard’s signature style - melding documentary realism with surrealist distortion to amplify political messages. Hiroshima Clock not only commemorates the past but also warns of a potential future shaped by unchecked militarization. The fractured clock serves as both a historical record and an alarm, pressing the audience to consider the consequences of nuclear proliferation. As with much of Kennard’s work, the simplicity of the composition belies its deep and urgent meaning, making it a striking and timeless anti-war statement.
