This is a black-and-white photo of a single hand, palm up, fingers spread wide. The skin looks rough, with creases and shadows making the fingers stand out. The edges of the hand fade into a light background, and the top half of the image has text in another language. The hand is the only thing shown—no face, no body, just this close-up. The text at the top names someone (not the artist) and the city Berlin. Check out Solomon Telingater next to see more of his work.
