You can’t walk past this sculpture in Martina Franca, in Piazza XX Settembre, Puglia, without thinking about the possibilities of peace and dropping our partisan battles for friendship. Walking through the green square to the park, you can’t miss it. You feel the potential of unity, getting the world together.
Each pair of hands, rising up against the brilliant hot blue sky, symbolizes love, faith, hope, wisdom, help, and friendship.
We need more of all that! People passing through were holding hands, taking photos, marveling at the force of the hands together.
The sculpture will be in Martina Franca until the end of August. Then it goes to Dubai.
