MAN/US, 2022

“For me, hands stand for communication. The image of the two hands revealed itself when I was thinking about how I see a stereotypical bum: as someone sitting on a rug, totally powerless really. Raising his hand, and someone else putting money in that. A totally non-equal action in fact. I wanted to make that equal and literally give it a twist. You can also sit in it so that you can start the conversation. Something that will happen a lot at BAKKIE 040, I hope.”
