A fortune teller’s turban, or a bandaged head - both allude to the role of luck, and the desire we have to control it. The scarf-like train of the bandage gradually reaches the ground, hosting a wandering trail of formal and informal arrangements made up of cards, lucky “hands” in Bridge, each hand lined with lucky stars/constellations. They are supported by delicate gauze, a material that suggests both wounds and survival after bad luck. Luck feels like the most important and most indeterminate force in our lives. In the face of that, cards and constellations seem like attempts to quantify, or capture luck, and to ward off our ultimate lack of control.
