Melissa Caplan- Artist


Hands reaching out, one could interoperate them, as pleading hands. Starving children, homeless begging.,
Or one could see them as more sinister than that. A consumer society, like baby birds, mouths open, waiting to be fed, whatever they are given- then biting the hand that feeds them- by not being satisfied. Chirping, “ I want.”
I Want. 2013. Latex, wood and netting.
