This unusual sculpture is comprised of several pieces depicting hands on several different stone blocks. Most of the hands are interacting with a hand or hands of another individual, but on one of the blocks, a baby's hand lies upright by itself. The bronze work is by French/American artist Louise Bourgeois (1911-2010) and is dated 1996. Read more about the artist at (
