When things are busy it can feel like time flies, and goodness knows things are busy in our house while school is closed, with each of us scurrying between zoom calls, trying to work, trying to cook, trying to arrange the next day’s schedule, all while trying to make the internet work smoothly. But the hours when I’m responsible for childcare are looooooong. Each minute reminds me of what it feels like to turn a bolt, where each full rotation only moves the bolt in a tiny bit further. Slowly the hours creep by until it’s my turn to work again and then, in a flash, four hours have passed and I’m not nearly finished with what I needed to do. This pendant replaces the hour markings on a clock face with tiny bolts, their threads moving along in my imagination slowly, slowly.
