“With Praying Hands, a series of oversized Clinton portraits drawn from news photos and magazine covers, Silvera set out to transform specific images from popular culture into a universal idea—an experiment in art, measuring the impact of time; and fine art, on a seemingly indelible face and unmistakable moment in time. The resulting works are timeless portraits of a man rapt in emotion. He is any man of sorrow, in any time.”
from BILL CLINTON AS YOU’VE NEVER SEEN HIM BEFORE by Michele S. Brown
