A forensic investigation into the nature of artistic authorship.
Prueba Forense (Forensic Evidence) is a unique conceptual sculpture by Furst_Ori (ArtandShadow): a hand cast in plaster and glass, its index finger covered in a film of silver leaf — effectively concealing the fingerprint.
The work is accompanied by a Certificate of Authenticity (not the official CoA) which affirms, in Spanish, that the piece has been subjected to forensic fingerprint analysis. Given the complete absence of any fingerprints, the laboratory confirms that the artist has not come into contact with the work at any time — and therefore credits the attribution of the work to the said artist.
A paradoxical game on the nature of authenticity, authorship, and the relationship between artist and artwork. Perhaps also a quiet commentary on artists who no longer dirty their hands with the physical production of their work. A sister piece, in some senses, to Constructed Identity.
A unique, one-of-a-kind conceptual artwork. Supplied with its forensic Certificate of Authenticity.

Product Safety & Compliance Information
Legal Notice & Artistic Nature
This is an original, handmade work of art, produced in a
limited series and intended for collectors and decorative display purposes
only. In the interest of full transparency and the safety of our collectors, we
provide the following information regarding the correct handling and
preservation of the artwork.
Intended Use & Environment
- Indoor
use only. This sculpture is designed exclusively for indoor decorative
display. Exposure to outdoor conditions — including rain, moisture, frost,
or high humidity — will cause corrosion of the metal components and
degradation of the acrylic elements. - Not
a toy. This is a professional artwork and is not intended for children.
Please keep it out of reach of children and pets at all times.
Material Hazards & Handling
- Metal
components may include intentional sharp edges, points, or delicate
structural details inherent to the artistic design. Handle with care
during unboxing and placement to avoid injury or damage to the piece. - Acrylic
elements should not be subjected to excessive pressure or impact, as they
may crack or detach from the metal frame. - Stability:
Place the sculpture on a flat, stable, and sturdy surface capable of
supporting its weight. Avoid high-traffic areas where it could be
accidentally knocked over.
Maintenance & Care
- Cleaning:
Use only a soft, dry microfibre cloth. Never use alcohol, chemical
solvents, or abrasive products — these will permanently cloud, scratch, or
crack the acrylic surface. - Heat
& light: Keep away from open flames, candles, and direct high-heat
sources. Prolonged exposure to intense heat or direct sunlight may warp or
discolour the acrylic components.
