We’re obsessed with this Hand with Rose. The hand-painted miniature mixed-media construction is the perfect balance of techno-romantic and swamp pop.
About the image:
“The hand almost certainly comes from my Catholic upbringing. Jesus, or any of the saints and angels, in the hierarchy of the pantheon, are holding hands up to convey meaning, like peace, direction, desire, guilt. That hand image I use is mostly of a hand with fingers facing up, palm forward.” FXP
About Thomas Mann:
An icon of the American Craft Jewelry movement and a full-time practicing professional artist for close to 50 years, Thomas Mann describes himself as an artist working in the medium of jewelry and sculpture. Inspired by parts from machines, electronic instruments, costume jewelry, and old postcards & photos, Mann's recurring but always changing parts give his work its storytelling quality and theatricality.
