The Group Wood Figurative Sculpture

This carved wooden form reads like a suspended exhale—multiple elongated hands rising from a single, faceted base, their negative spaces cut cleanly so absence becomes as expressive as matter. The warm grain and quiet tool marks lend a bodily intimacy, while the upward thrust of clustered fingers suggests both supplication and collective resolve, as if individual wills are braided into one gesture. Subtle punctures and apertures interrupt the surface like memories or scars, insisting that unity is not seamless but assembled through lived friction and time. In its restrained palette and stark silhouette, the sculpture stages a meditation on solidarity: hands that reach not to grasp, but to endure and witness together.
