removing the clock is not possible unless digging the core files of gnome-shell files which is very difficult.
instead you can hide it by editing ubuntu.css file.
Disclaimer: playing with gdm3 files is very dangerous, small mistakes will stop access to gnome desktop session. Only tty will work. i have several times reinstalled Ubuntu in such cases. although i have successfully hidden the clock-display on lock-screen. proceed with your own risk.
open the file /usr/share/gnome-shell/theme/ubuntu.css with below command.
sudo -H gedit /usr/share/gnome-shell/theme/ubuntu.css
search for "screen-shield" and find the below content
.screen-shield-clock-time {
font-size: 72pt;
text-shadow: 0px 2px 2px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.4);
font-feature-settings: "tnum"; }
.screen-shield-clock-date {
font-size: 28pt;
font-weight: normal; }
then make the font-sizes to 0 like below
.screen-shield-clock-time {
font-size: 0pt;
text-shadow: 0px 2px 2px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.4);
font-feature-settings: "tnum"; }
.screen-shield-clock-date {
font-size: 0pt;
font-weight: normal; }
save the file, close and reboot.
