The artwork contrasts the natural with the artificial by showing a green, translucent hand holding a desiccated flower or bud. While the flower has a natural beauty despite being dried and appearing dead, the hand conveys a sense of vulnerability despite its strength. Human anatomy and the relationship between body and object are topics Marie frequently explores. The hand's translucent appearance in this piece conveys a sense of transparency and vulnerability, maybe provoking viewers to reflect on the body's transience and inevitable disintegration. By emphasizing sculptural shape and texture, Alyx Marie evokes a tactile response that transcends aesthetics and engages in more profound emotional and philosophical reflection.
