I am a student of science, and ever since I learned of the topic, I tried to come up with an artwork which portrayed the literal meaning of catalyst. I even tried to correlate my love of neuroscience with the topic, but I was struggling. It is then that I turned towards another love and passion of mine - the Cosmos. I love the Moon and almost everything about it fascinates me. The lunar cycle is less of a chemical reaction that will need a catalyst, but being an atheist, I tried to spin the "divine touch" concept from a new perspective. That is where Michelangelo's God Hands comes in; the Vitruvian Man is supposed to be imagery for balance, beauty, symmetry, and harmony that prevails in Nature, however I used the fictional concept of portals to link the Vitruvian Man and the God Hands to show that Nature and God are one and the same and that the Moon phases are more of sleight of the Hands than being a natural process. Thus, the touch of the Hands acts as the divine catalyst for the monthly lunar spectacle.
