Hands That do All

We need all help spreading and supporting this project. Take a look!

The intricate network of scars and deep creases that sculpt a hand distinctively expresses what a person does. Mãos dos Sete Ofícios, or Hands That Do All is our latest creative exploration, a play on the Portuguese expression, O homem dos sete ofícios (jack of all trades). Over two months this Fall 2012, during the abundant harvest season, we will meet with and create hand portraits of the makers of Tondela, Portugal. This compilation of cast plaster hands will be permanently displayed in the Tondela Regional Hall, paying poetic homage to people who know how to do so much with their hands.
