For Universal Genève Vault, Constantin Prozorov reimagined the heritage of one of Switzerland’s most iconic watchmaking houses through his surreal animated collage language.
Following in the artistic footsteps of Jean Cocteau, who once collaborated with the Maison, Prozorov created a cinematic journey through time, tracing Universal Genève’s story from 1930s Geneva to the 1960s West Coast, with chapters spanning Paris, London, New York, and beyond.
Through dreamlike compositions, the series brings the brand’s spirit of adventure, innovation, and technical brilliance to life, including a surreal polar flight from Copenhagen across the North Pole. The project pays homage to the artistry of timekeeping while expanding Universal Genève’s heritage into a poetic, contemporary visual universe.
