In Mood Clock (Peace, Hope, Fuck You), the artist has hand-painted parts of a hand and affixed them to clockworks. Over the course of hours, the hands move through gestures symbolizing the emotions listed in the work's title. The clock keeps accurate time and can be set via a simple mechanism on the back.
Pictured alongside Mood Clocks (Purple Face with Red Frame) in the Body / Body / Body exhibition, this work is part of Isenstein's ongoing Mood Clocks series.

Body / Body / Body offers an intimate counterpoint to an age of control: works that reclaim the body as a site of autonomy, performance, pleasure, and lived experience. With an unconventional use of materials, artists Jamie Isenstein, Fabienne Lasserre, and Sophy Naess reflect upon bodies through the lenses of feminism, humor, and imagination.
