This is and interactive mechanical hand attached to an arm and supported by bungee cords. As the viewer moves the hand up or down, the fingers will open and close.
The fingers function with the combination of steel springs and carbon fiber strips which allow the fingers to return to their original position. The had itself is constructed from conduit steel piping, copper piping, and aluminum.
As for the image of a very large metal hand and the banana over its shadow, its really up to the viewer what the story is.
