Luke Ramsey – Hands for Eyes

Edition: 20
Size: 20.5″x26″ + 2.5″ white border

STATEMENT: A bear and bird for a face, bear in the hair. Hands for eyes. A gesture to reaching out to what one sees. This piece is about human connection. The desire to touch, to lend a hand, to reflect. It shows personalities inside and out — our true selves within and the outward pieces of ourselves we use to connect.
