Margo and the Hand Of
Pencil and watercolor on sewing tracing paper (c. 1960s)
2025

Margo and the Hand Of depicts a young girl who moves through the world accompanied by a divine hand that touches her intermittently.

Rendered on mid-century sewing tracing paper, a material historically used to translate bodies into pattern and form, the surface carries its own lineage of guidance and instruction.

The hand operates as both benediction and disturbance, suggesting the complex intimacy of being shaped by forces beyond one’s choosing.

This is also a self-portrait.
