Our friend Reka recently visited the UK where he was able to leave a new piece of work somewhere in London, Camden.

The Jaw represents the communication and the hunger of Britain’s decision of independence as the hand connected looses grasp to a second hand, representing the EU, which almost tries to reach out in an attempt to cling on to Britain and stay connected. The notion of actions (the hands), speaking louder than words (the Jaw)
