Design Work Life: Cataloging Inspiration Daily

The Hand is a lim­ited edi­tion art book from Nobrow Small Press, fea­tur­ing the work of Luke Best. Here’s what Nobrow had to say about the book:

According to Luke, ‘THE HAND’ Is based on a short story by Katherine Dunn called ‘That’s all I know (right now)’ which in turn is based on the song of the same name by Sonic Youth. The short story was inspired by local rumours from Portland, Oregon where a sev­ered hand was found in a park. Luke came across the story when he was vis­it­ing the area and decided to make some work about it. He mys­te­ri­ously says “But noth­ing can match the uncom­fort­able truth.” and we are inclined to agree… except actu­ally we don’t know the ‘truth’! We like the book though and it’s lov­ingly ren­dered in red and blue and has the added bonus of a fold out dust jacket.
