Life in society is a huge challenge and every day we find ourselves fighting huge battles with ourselves along with the constant threats and temptations that surround us.

Not everything is what it seems, and as much as there are those who love us, there are always many other people who don't love us and try to pull us down.

We need to stay strong and believe in ourselves, transform good memories into inner strength and move forward with the support of those who love us.

The hand element has always played an important role in the arts due to its strong symbolism and expressiveness.

I established the relationship with Ephesians 6:10-20 using the representation of good and evil (God and Evil) with the use of hands. The hands in different positions sometimes symbolize challenges/temptations and evil (below) and on the other side the kindness to those who love us (above).
