Bare Hands

“Bare Hands” is a painting born entirely from the natural mineral pigments of Serifos’ earth.
These very stones once shaped the harsh daily lives and demanding labor of the island’s
miners. Gathered from the landscape, these rock samples, mostly iron oxides and clay,
were processed through ancestral paint-making traditions. Finely ground by hand with a
mortar and infused with linseed oil, they were transformed into oil paints. An ochre and a
deep red.
