This series of drawings depict human conflict using vintage Barbie memorabilia. The scenes are inspired by mid-century culture but with a 21st century perspective, including tongue-in-cheek nods to Andy Warhol and other pop icons.
Technically the drawings are still lifes, composed using the dolls in their renowned dreamhouse, however, the final result resembles more of an allegorical narrative due to the doll's ability to represent real humans.
Artist-grade wax crayon is used as a medium in order to tangibly symbolize childhood innocence and the insecurity of adulthood. A wide range of subject matter is presented in comical situations involving the absurd dolls and their plastic retro household.
