Description
Human-crafted. AI-refined.

This striking sculpture depicts a disembodied green bronze hand with a weathered, textured surface. The irregular, organic shape and natural hue evoke a sense of decay or erosion, suggesting the passage of time. The artist has skillfully captured the form and wrinkled skin of a human hand, evoking a sense of disconnection and fragility. This powerful work invites contemplation on themes of mortality, the human condition, and the fragile nature of our physical form. The artist's intention may have been to explore the transient nature of life and the universal human experience. ...

Francis Upritchard
B.1976, New Zealand

Francis Upritchard was born in 1976 in New Plymouth, New Zealand and lives and works in London and New Zealand. Upritchard’s work draws on figurative sculpture, blending references from literature to ancient sculptures, and burial grounds to science fiction. Her installations showcase a wide variety of materials; her distinctive figurative sculptures are made using polymer plastic, amorphous mythological figures in balata - a natural rubber, bronze dinosaurs, glass vessels and ceramic urns. ‘Upritchard questions how we construct a vision for the future through our fractured, partial and often conflicted understanding of the past. She creates a place where histories and archives can be viewed anew through playfully exploring aspects of partiality, misreading and uncanny coincidences. Upritchard’s mini worlds are anti-imperial and non-hierarchical - there is no dominant culture.’ Heather Galbraith. ...
