Katie Paterson Candle (From Earth into a Black Hole), 2015

A scented white candle that burns down over 12 hours, creates a journey through space via scent. The candle is formed of layers, each containing a unique perfume corresponding to a planet or place in the Universe: as if taking off from Earth, travelling to the Moon, the Sun, Mars and Jupiter, via the stars, and into a vacuum.
