VIKA ADUTOVA, Monothematic Delusion of the Hand, 2010,
“Monothematic delusion of a hand is a mental illness in which one denies ownership of a limb. As a metaphor for illness taking over the psyche, the sculpture depicts a limb without the body, as if the delusion replaced the entire personality.”
[from the artist’s statement]
