MARGO

I find beauty in primary elements and naturally occurring shapes and rhythms. They suggest an infinite universe, this invisible space portrayed by the visible. From the apparent simplicity, patterns reveal themselves as the drawing evolves. They suggest anything from far distant galaxies to the microscopic world full of symmetry. The variations of the size of the marks also emphasizes the growth of these shapes and of all living organisms. 

This collection of ink drawings explores the depths of life from its most basic manifestations. It is a journey through the microscopic worlds of the primitive circle and the macroscopic tropes; from cell, mandala, seeds, trypophobia, laundry or a planet. I sort, stack, copy, and otherwise manipulate these simple forms until they become a system suggesting a pattern, an interaction, a narrative even. This system forms a larger union that anchors the drawing: an ordering of complexity.

In her work, Margo intricately weaves together themes of beauty and complexity, drawing parallels between the vast expanse of the universe and the intricate microcosms of our existence. Each piece serves as a poignant reminder of the interconnectedness of all things, inviting viewers to explore the endless possibilities within their own lives through the lens of these "micro mythologies."

Through her art, Margo invites us to ponder the profound connections that bind us to the universe and to one another, encouraging us to delve into the depths of our own narratives and potential.
