Riley+Spencer+Body+Project

For my body piece, I decided to focus on the hands. I have always been fascinated by the hands ability to create and to interact with the world. In my video I showed the hands playing both a trumpet and a piano. I was trying to explore the emotional responses one can get when hands interact with other objects, in this case instruments.The music played is all improvised, which further explores the hands ability to translate the minds thoughts.
