Deine Hand
Grasping Shadows
The Symbolism of a Hand in Darkness
In the darkness, a hand floats, seemingly detached from everything, its fingers extended as if trying to grasp something. Is it reaching into the void? What is it searching for? The contours of the hand are not clearly defined. Is it just a shadow cast by the faint light, or is it hanging merely by bones, a silent testament to a lost existence? The hand; so much more than just a body part. It can comfort, hold, protect, and caress. It can convey closeness and security, be an anchor in turbulent times. Yet, it can also exert violence, suppress, and attack, an instrument of destruction and pain. What have you reached out for in the darkness? For a saving light, a familiar touch, or just a sign that you're not alone? And if someone extends their hand to you in a moment of darkness, do you reciprocate the gesture? Do you accept it and share the warmth, or do you pull away, lost in your own shadows? Answer yourself…
Das Gefühl zu verschwimmen, zu verblassen, sich zu verlieren, innerlich zu ertrinken, die Luft zum atmen wird knapp, es schnürt sich alles zu um dich, du verharrst wie das Kaninchen vor der Schlange, wann endet es und wann hat es eigentlich alles angefangen .... Ertrinken ist ein stiller Tod, aber keiner voll Gnade.
La sensación de desvanecerse, de desaparecer, de perderse, de ahogarse internamente, el aire para respirar se vuelve escaso, todo se aprieta a tu alrededor, te quedas paralizado como el conejo frente a la serpiente, ¿cuándo termina y cuándo realmente comenzó todo...? Ahogarse es una muerte silenciosa, pero no es una muerte misericordiosa.
