Quarantine Portrait Series: Tele-Portrait with Hand Gestures

I had the third hospital televisit with my brother Mike today. He is on the east coast, I live in California. Mike has never spoken, he is low functioning and autistic. Mike was quite still during our visit. I repeated his name many times, in hope of some kind of change in expression, to no avail. The position of his hands reminded me of photographs and drawings I had made of him over the years. ( Expressive Hands, Hands in Context, Portrait with Bandage and Hands)
