At the base, the carved hand emerges holding a round object, part offering, part question. Is it a key, a burden, or a moment suspended? The scorched surface and vivid color washes echo both destruction and renewal, a familiar McFate theme rooted in reclamation and memory.
Constructed from discarded materials and street-found elements, this piece transforms the overlooked into something deliberate and contemplative—an object that feels both mechanical and human, past and present, fixed and in motion.
