Chiromania reinterprets the ancient practice of chiromancy — the reading of palms — through a contemporary lens. In this series, black-and-white photographs of hands, gestures, and mudras, are delicately highlighted with 24k gold, revealing each subject’s unique constellation of lines. By gilding these natural markings, an ancient form of divination is revived as a discourse on individuality, lineage, and the quiet cartography of time upon the human form - a map of fate, memory, and touch.
Giclée photograph, printed with archival pigment inks on cotton rag paper, 24 karat gold
20 × 30 in / 50.8 × 76.2 cm (unframed)
