Surrender comprises of two artworks, originally available as low edition multiples, La Main (The Hand) and Le Chapelet (The Rosary) both commissioned for a salon-styled exhibition entitled SURRENDER (referring to the Wizard of Oz) curated by Rafael von Uslar for Aeroplastics Contemporary in Brussels. A more reflective path was taken with these two artworks in which the history of the Belgian state, past and present, is incorporated into the content of the artworks.
