Founder

Hello, my name is Andrew Fitzgerald and I am an artist and designer from Hertfordshire, England. I produce various items but concentrate on upcycling clocks and bespoke furniture created from retro music-based paraphernalia.

About Vyconic

Since childhood, I have been intrigued with investigating how mechanical objects work, dismantling things and putting them back together. This combined with a passion for drawing and creating art and gifts, meant that I began to experiment with incorporating everyday objects into my art.

The care that went into creating many of the items that I have rescued (record players, radiograms, even the vinyl records themselves) seemed particularly poignant to me, given the increasingly 'virtual' manner in which music is consumed these days. These pieces evoke a nostalgia for the days when your music was a much more visible and tangible part of your life, sitting in the corner of your bedroom or living room, your music collection visible to all.
