For this piece, I took pictures of each of my classmates hands, went into Photoshop and carefully selected each one, and rearranged them on a new document. The most interesting point of consideration throughout this whole process was selecting people who had distinct personalities with varying interests, and seeing if those personal traits would apply themselves to the appearances of our often-forgotten hands.
