how long will you hold my hand

How Long Will You Hold My Hand, (2025-Present) is a series created by Molly Jo Burke and Nathan Gorgen featuring life casts of their hands holding their children’s hands that are cast repeatedly from a temporary mold material that depletes with each cast. The mold only lasts a certain amount of time. The form that comes from each cast slowly degrades and capturing the ephemeral moments of the sweet memory of time with each child and how it is every changing. The casts are displayed in order of creation from the degrading mold.
