Reaching Out by Steven “Kas” Tucker
Medium: Mixed media on paper
Size: 9 x 12 inches
Artist statement: “The hands represent the three phases I been in my life. First, being pulled down by the negativity, then reaching out for help, and finally I’m reaching out to those who need help who are drowning in despair and burning with anger.”
Image description: A hand reaches out to grasp another hand that descends from the opposite direction, but the first hand is surrounded by flames and water that contains other hands and pincers grasping at the reaching hand.
