Hand gLove, 2009

Hand gLove is a playful musing on gesture, harkening back to the amputations and the anthropomorphizing of body parts by the Surrealists. The animated narrative plays out a tryst between two hands that is divisively ambiguous in both conclusion and assigning gender, inviting the viewer to privately project their own conclusions.
