Hands of History

‘If these hands once shaped history, what will yours do next?’

Born of fragile hope, this striking artwork captures the hands of political leaders who negotiated the Good Friday Agreement — a pivotal moment in Ireland’s peace process. Raymond presents more than 30 bronze hand-casts, mounted on three granite stones featuring political party leaders such as Gerry Adams, John Hume, David Trimble, Monica McWilliams, David Ervine and more - former opponents who chose dialogue over division, and reached across the divide toward common ground.

Conflict doesn’t end with a signature or a handshake.
Peace begins...
