In the mode of appropriation, The Devil in the Details revisits horror movies through the recurring motif of hands. The hands are shown squeezing, shaking, grasping, or tearing in an infinite loop, detached from their original context. This repetition of the motif generates an abstract narrative, guided by Steve Reich's composition "Clapping Music", transforming the imagery into a visceral experience.
