The delicate objects made from Ortho Litho transparency films titled Bib and Wig uses body language imagery of “arms crossed” and “fingers crossed” to metaphorically protect.

In visually referencing diagnostic x-ray technology, but uncovering human response of belief and hope, I contrast technological probing with actual insight.
