Margaret Evangeline (b. 1943, Baton Rouge, Louisiana, United States) lives and works in New York, New York, United States. Safe and Sound references the children’s game “pick-up sticks,” instead made from traffic barricades that Evangeline has shot through using her grandfather’s shotgun, pointing to the history of gun rights and uses in the US.
