The outlines for these hand silhouettes have been sent to the artist by key and essential workers from all around the world. They are executed in a manner referencing cave art hand silhouettes, the most widespread and prolific form of pre-history art.
From an Emergency Department Nurse Practitioner in California to a Supermarket Delivery Driver in Oswestry, they each marked their shared humanity by the simple and time honoured expedient of drawing around their hands.
