A series of 4 interactive installations pays tribute to inspiring women through images of their hands at work. Combining drypoint techniques with oil paint on plexiglas with mixed media, live video projection and viewer participation, each installation offers an experience of connection. This image, the painted hands of massage therapist Linda Hawke hold a hot rock for a treatment; silicone applied to the plexi on either side references massage oil gestures.
