Near Antofagasta in the Atacama desert of Chile stands a giant hand scuplture of fiberglass, a great work of the Chilean artist Mario Irrizábal. It is known in Chile as 'La Mano del Desierto' - 'The Hand of the Desert', it is a landmark about a quarter mile (in a straight line) west of the Panamerican highway which runs north to south through the Atacama desert.
Other photos, not included here, show that even out in the desert people marked it up with grafitti and their names...society is a mess.
