Known as the "Black Arts" for the stains left on the ungloved hands of early photographers, Blkk Hand takes it name from the effects that silver nitrate has on skin (typically accidentally) when exposed to light.

Blkk Hand began in 2014 as a project in studio, but has since grown to include a mobile photobooth setup that can make appearances at various events and markets.
