Sareh Imani
During the pandemic, like so many other artists, I have been using materials that I could find in my home studio. One day I found a bottle of liquid latex, that I had completely forgotten about, and I decided to make my own latex glove. I was thinking about how latex gloves work as some sort of disposable second layer of skin to protect us from contracting the virus. And how there is no immediate touch with that layer covering our hands, whenever we are outside.
