"Furst_Ori Handmade": A Unique 1-of-1 Conceptual Sculpture

A raw and contemplative emblem of the physical cost of creation.

"Furst_Ori Handmade" is an ironic, singular statement on authorship, labor, and the vulnerability of the artist. In this unique conceptual work, the artist duo Furst_Ori reveals their own creative tools—their hands—cast in plaster and fixed to a black-painted wooden beam.

Using the symbolic language of sacrifice and craftsmanship, the artists invite the viewer to reflect on the weight of manual creation in a digital age. This is not just a sculpture; it is a testament to the dedication required to bring art into the world "by hand."

The Concept: Craftsmanship & Sacrifice

This 1-of-1 piece moves beyond decoration into the realm of high-concept installation:

• The Tools of the Trade: By casting their own hands, the artists offer an intimate and ironic self-portrait, centering the physical act of making as the subject itself.

• The Symbolic Beam: The use of a reclaimed wooden pallet beam anchors the work in the world of industrial labor, while the "crucifixion-style" mounting with antique nails speaks to the historical weight of artistic devotion.

• A Dialogue of Materials: The stark contrast between the white plaster and the deep black wood creates a powerful visual tension that commands any wall it occupies.

Why This Piece is Unique

• A One-of-a-Kind Original: This is a unique 1/1 creation. As an intimate cast of the artists' own hands, it can never be replicated or turned into a series.

• Reclaimed Narrative: The wood is salvaged from a 19th-century studio context, bringing its own history of utility and age to the modern composition.

• Provocative Statement: This piece serves as a definitive conversation starter, ideal for collectors who value art that explores the "why" behind the "how."

The Craftsmanship

• Hand-Cast Plaster: Precise, high-definition plaster casts that capture every detail and line of the artists' hands.

• Antique Forged Nails: Authentic, aged nails are used to secure the casts, adding a layer of historical texture and "raw" industrial soul.

• Hand-Finished Wood: The reclaimed beam is carefully cut, sanded, and treated with a matte black finish to highlight the white plaster forms.
