BeBe Identity
Photographed as thoughtful beings, the dolls are an inorganic
representation of the conscious persona. Through the use of
analogous imagery, the artist prompts the viewer to construct
personal meaning and thus subjectively interpret the thoughts of
each doll. In the end, the viewer is left with the discordant
awareness that the thoughts they have attached to what they have
observed is not and never will be a living thing. Evocative,
repressive and disturbingly sexual, Bebe exposes the stark
imperfections of humans through the safety of inanimate objects
“Quintessentially tortured art derived from exploited dolls reinvented as beauty queens gone awry. Nymphism serves as a portal to a wormhole of consciousness punctuated by female objectification, vanity and social values with pedophilia creeping at the edges.”
