Rimini-based street artist Basik transforms the urban landscape into a meditation on human connection and mortality.

This haunting piece from his celebrated Hands series reveals the artist's masterful ability to blend anatomical precision with deeply symbolic storytelling.

The composition presents cupped hands cradling a skull—a powerful memento mori rendered in Basik's signature stained-glass aesthetic. The segmented, cellular structure of the artwork creates an almost sacred quality, elevating street art into the realm of contemporary devotional imagery. The small golden orb positioned like a third eye speaks to themes of enlightenment emerging from our confrontation with mortality.

*Part of the artist's groundbreaking exploration of human gesture and meaning, completed during his pivotal 2013-14 period in Rimini, Italy.
