**Fortune's Mechanism**

She has been watching you. She has always been watching you.

At the center of this kinetic assemblage, a Victorian Pierrot half-doll presides over two independent clock movements that turn her stage in slow, deliberate rotation. Jet glass beading salvaged from a fragment of Victorian mourning dress rings her platform like a funeral garland. Vintage playing cards, dominoes, a clock face, and a miniature metal dog attend her in their appointed places. A philatelist's Merit Gauge rises behind her — because everything, eventually, is measured.

On the reverse, an antique photograph of three men looks out at you with the particular confidence of people who know how this ends.

*Original kinetic mixed-media assemblage. 4.5 x 7.5". Two working clock mechanisms, Victorian Pierrot half-doll, jet glass mourning dress trim, vintage playing cards, dominoes, antique clock face, Merit Gauge, miniature metal dog, antique photograph.
