A photograph of a pair of hands with the recycling symbol ‘tattooed’ on each palm.
This seminal edition of photographs shows the artist’s hands offering supplication – or are they begging? – with tattooed recycling symbols stamped on his palms like stigmata. The cycle of life and death; the nails though the hands of Christ; the destiny of the artist as recycler of images.
