HANDS FOR HUMANITY - Joy von Tiedemann Photographic Collection

The Official Photographer for Project HUMANITY - FROM THE DARK TO THE LIGHT, 
Joy von Tiedemann, has recently completed an inspiring new collection of twelve black and white hand portraits, each one emblematic of the "FROM THE DARK TO THE LIGHT" theme and reflective of the human characteristics of survival and our shared humanity.

"Throughout history art has overcome the artificial barriers that divide humanity; the barriers of nation, race, culture, even religion.  Art opens the closed door of our egotism and casts a light on the transcendent qualities that we all share, challenging us to become who we truly are : one shared spirit. 
I feel working together with Mark on Project Humanity - FROM THE DARK TO THE LIGHT will be an excellent venue to express these thoughts."

"This series of hand portraits depict gesture's which are represented 
both in negative and positive formats, symbolic of both the fragility 
and inspirational aspects of the human condition when faced with 
the DARK and LIGHT shades of life."
