I am pleased to present Images of my hands holding essential sculpting tools to model wire-mesh, one of which is a leather / modelling knife I got in 1975 - 50 years ago - and still in use! Other of my sculpting tools include modified cricket stumps, drum sticks or wooden household utensils.

Andres Reynaga: "part of my personal photography project about hands, the stories they tell, the lives they’ve shaped, the work (and play) they’ve done. I’ve been photographing hands as a way of capturing who people are in a unique and intimate way. Your hands have a story worth telling. Let’s capture it."

Hand-sculpted figurative art made from a single wire sheet
A ’Begbie sculpture’ is never moulded – a unique semi-transparent artwork with its own character.
Each wire sculpture is modelled using very own (self-made) tools and ’fixed’ joining each wire intersection, so that the artwork is robust and stable for posterity.
