The work "Awake" is a representation of the moment when man reaches his state of full understanding of things. The hand pointing with the index finger indicates that the man has reached the top and that there is only one way. The other fingers of the hand are like elevations on a mountain where the man had to walk to reach the top. This work has several other meanings.
Furthermore, this work can be understood as the moment in which the person reaches the top of what they are looking for, that is, the top of themselves, which is only possible through their hands.
Among the small details, we can notice that the thumbnail is slightly loose, or rather, slightly bruised; This is to connote the idea that there is no evolution without injuries and that injuries are memories of a process that has passed.
