About the Program

In Margaret Dragu's performance Pillowbook, La Dragu has reinvented herself as Lady Justice channeling the Roman goddess Justita, the greek goddess Themis, and the Egyptian goddess Ma'at to bring justice and jurisprudence to all. While she has the scales, she has lost the sword. This event is a benefit to get it back. It's a big problem as Ironing Man, beloved leader of VisualEyes put it, "Lady Justice is brave and true and looking fabulous but the strain is beginning to show. She is worried sick over the loss of her beloved Sword of Justice." Lady Justice will allow herself to be photographed with her fans for inclusion on her blog site for a small fee guaranteeing the participant immediate transformation into a mass media star. A small price to pay for Justice.
