The art practices and impulses of two doll makers and the worlds their dolls represent, creating windows in the walls we find ourselves imprisoned in.
What is art in our lives? What is home? Can practising art, sharing it, give us a possibility of sharing home in the world?
Two dollmakers work in very different ways with the human form. They choose to work with very simple, sometimes discarded materials. The work gently prises open resistances we have to empathizing with those facing harsh realities around us. The work playfully loosens up knots of shame and fear. It lets in a more wholesome look at life and suggests a hopefulness and a desire for a more integrated, empathetic world.
