From palm reading to genetics, identity to heritage, what do our hands say about us?

Make some animation and poetry with SPINE Artists in Residence Linnéa and Yomi, and be part of creating a film as part of Spine Festival 2019. We’re exploring ‘Hands’ as the theme. How feelings are shown through our hands or how best to describe ourselves by our hands. Whether writing poems or using stills to create moving images – you are sure to have hands-on everything from start to finish. You don’t want to miss out!
