A Wink from Heaven, 2025
Seden Lai


“The initial inspiration for this came from the idea of forming a constellation, by slowly tracing the stars until an outline or meaning emerges. Being deeply spiritual but not religious, I encountered fables on fortune, luck and tragedy, superstitions that I still carry with me today.

The word clock comes from the French cloche, meaning bell as they were once relied on in churches for regular prayer. Now my phone tells me when to make a wish; at 11:11 I take a screenshot as if catching a shooting star in my mind.“
