Book of Hours' takes its name from the medieval devotional texts containing daily prayers and practices, or as Walden puts it: "Something that tells you how to live every day." At the center of the image, which Agnes describes as "overtly horny," sits a trans man with a testosterone patch on his left inner thigh. On his right, we can see what appears to be the glowing, golden imprint of yesterday's patch. Between his open legs, he has laid out an open book. Where the content of its pages should be visible to the viewer, there is instead a pattern painted in various flesh tones that evokes the patch motif.
