This sculpture embodies the essay From Tools to Agency. This essay is about the concept of homo faber and humanity's relationship with complex tools and technologies. It explores the tension between modern humans' passive use of technology and their potential to become active creators of their world. The hand, sculpted from clay and painted with a steel-like finish, symbolizes technological progress, emerging from a stone base that represents nature. The piece invites reflection on humanity's role as active shapers of the world, aligning with the essay’s call for a critical understanding of how the tools we create impact our environment and future.
