Study of Hands #2
The fragment can carry the expressive force of the whole body.
The project
Study of Hands #2 develops research inspired by Auguste Rodin and his process of deconstructing and fragmenting the human form. The project focuses on the expressive resonance of the hand and on how a fragment can be reintegrated into a larger body.
Following Valeria Famularo’s earlier solo research, a two-week R&D period with Ina Colizza at the University of Salford developed the idea toward a site-specific work for gallery spaces.

Study of Hands #2
The collaboration extends Valeria Famularo’s earlier solo research into a two-week R&D period with Ina Colizza at the University of Salford. Inspired by Rodin’s fragmentation of the human form, the process asks how the expressive force of a hand can be isolated and then reintegrated into a larger moving body.
