I’ve always been fascinated by body language, hand gestures, and all of the ways we communicate without words. I’ve explored this in almost all of my work, but especially when making the series In Seven Days...

Hand gestures are a way of visually communicating a complex story, in a seemingly simple way. I think perhaps the hand gesture that conveys the most powerful message and embodies the longest and most interesting history is the raised fist. I used it in the second print in the In Seven Days series, Day 2 struggle.

In my first blog post, I explain the incredible history of the iconic image of the raised fist.
