Movements of a body can signal a mood, express meaning, or even reveal things that are impossible to put into words. Gestures - anything from the simple nod to an emphatic stance - are significant narrative devices that artists skillfully utilize, whether to configure social interactions in a painting, immortalize them for posterity in a photograph, or transmit their emotional resonance in a sculpture. Gestures are significant clues in our endless pursuit to unravel and make meaning of the complexities and contradictions of a world that is always unfolding.
