WHOSJI (°1990) is a visual artist and film director, influenced by the symbolism of the human hand as an expressive object of art, studying sign processes, signification and communication, Whosji makes artwork that generates diverse meanings.
"This awareness of the importance of the hand not only as a tool for executing an idea or an emotion but as the central subject of my work certainly has something to do with my personal history. When I was little, I had to undergo surgery on my hand, an operation that I sometimes tend to like as a blessing, sometimes as an abusive assault on my being. Am I then in the process of restoring to my hand its right to speak, its freedom of expression? "
