The Hand of God is Panda’s tribute to Michelangelo’s, The Creation of Adam. Created at the beginning of the mandatory quarantine in Mid-March 2020 through the end of July, this hidden tryptic represents the collective downfall and entrapment of the human spirit as it became locked down in the Covid nightmare. Throughout this time, we all shared a deep desire to rise up and reconnect with one's higher sense of self. Through darkness, there will always be light, you just need to have faith. Find the power within yourself to restore the human spirit, not just your own. Collectively, reach towards the heavens and reunite with your internal God-like essence, lending a hand to all.
