The hands appeared one at a time over a year. The one on her shoulder arrived first, and it is the only one she lets stay.
Use the attached image as facial reference; preserve the exact face and bone structure.
A 26-year-old woman photographed chest-up, centred, facing straight into the lens. Chin level, head tilted four degrees right, eyes steady on the camera, lips closed with the faintest lift at one corner. Dark hair parted centre and pulled back smooth, a few strands loose at the temple. Warm brown skin, soft coral lip - the only saturated colour in the frame.
She wears a high-collared cream silk blouse, gathered softly at the shoulder, a narrow bow tied loose at the throat, the fabric matte and finely creased.
Behind her, a dense wall of life-size ceramic hands emerging from a bone-white surface, wrists disappearing into it, no arms and no bodies. Glazed bone-white porcelain, soft satin sheen, faint crazing lines. Each holds a different gesture: fingers spread, two curled, one pointing up, one palm forward, one with index and thumb almost touching. Nine hands large and sharp in the front row around her head and shoulders; the rest fall progressively softer behind, at least thirty visible.
One hand rests lightly on her right shoulder. It presses a small dent into the silk and the fabric gathers around its fingertips. Every hand casts its own soft shadow onto the ones behind it.
Soft even daylight from a large window to camera-left fills her face and the porcelain equally. Short gentle shadows, nothing dark. The surface behind fades to pale sage at the corners.
Palette: bone white, cream, pale sage, warm skin, coral. No bloom, no HDR, no flare, no grain, no text. 85mm f/2.8, eye level, flat frontal, depth falling off softly behind the front row. Vertical 4:5.
