ClickClock: Obsessive Collecting Disorder


In the grand debate surrounding the hoarding of tangibility, we bring together two formidable protagonists at the core of luxury’s obsessions, delving deep into the psychology of collecting. One, a collector, a maestro in orchestrating the rare and exotic, and the other, a purger, a virtuoso who boldly shed the weight of countless coveted pieces, confront each other head-on. What motivates these passionate individuals to amass or relinquish their treasures, and what uncharted realms are they both venturing into?
