If your partner now goes to the nearby cog and stands on it they will slow the gear in front of you so that it becomes a staircase. Go up the staircase and blast the painting with magic to produce a clock hand which you need to attach to the large clock face to the right. Now go to the edge of the room and use Lumos magic to release a device from the grip of some vines that are along the wall. When the device is then attached to the statue near the center of the room it will tug on a chain which will make the gear on the room's right side freeze and form a staircase.
