Thomas Houseago

Hands/Feet Panel (Walking Man)

A monumental sandblasted bronze relief by Thomas Houseago, *Hands/Feet Panel (Walking Man)* presents fragmented human limbs—hands and feet—in a raw, gestural arrangement that evokes both ancient artifact and modern abstraction. The sandblasted surface lends the work a matte, weathered texture that tempers the weight of the bronze, imbuing the piece with an earthy, primal quality. Houseago's signature blend of art historical references and expressive physicality transforms the body's extremities into charged symbols of movement, agency, and human presence.
