Clessidra (hourglass) is a abstract sculpture by Albanian contemporary artist Helidon Xhixha who specializes in stainless steel sculptures. The sculpture is in the form of a smooth highly polished convex oval. By contrast a line of ripples runs down the center of the oval, suggesting the sand of an hourglass. The sculpture is displayed on its end on a rectangular stainless steel platform. A sign on the side of the platform is inscribed:
