Suchan Kinoshita is continuously rediscovering time. She invents mechanisms that deregulate metrics. This work is part of a series of hourglass-like bottles made in different shapes and sizes. Each bottle contains a different liquid or substance, giving them each their own unique tempo. This bottle is filled with a mixture of honey and oil – to stop coagulation. As is often the case in Kinoshita’s work, this piece takes as its starting point everyday and recognisable objects and connects them to daily activities.
