Bina Baitel is an artist and designer with an odd take on material. Her work often ranges into the whimsical and fantastic, but this piece feels a bit sinister. The Lash Clock doesn't just remove normal markers for time telling from the clock's face, it adds slowly undulating hair.

The quiet format and imprecise organic feel are an interesting pairing given our usually mechanized treatment of time. Sculptural merit and all, this piece and its material play seem to raise my neck hairs.
