Те са били създавани за манекени. За витрини или за модни ателиета. Но Emilie Steele открива, че по им отива да разказват свои истории, да смущават, провокират, будят размисли…

„Още като дете се вълнувах от начините да изразявам себе си. Куклите си правех сама – тогава от хартия и плат…“,

разказва шведската художничка. Куклите ѝ днес са изработени с любов към детайла, но най-важното – към силната индивидуалност и различността.

As Rini departed from the Moon she left her rabbit coat behind, and since her sisters in the sea thought she might feel cold in this new land – the Moon child was welcomed with a gift of the warmest kind #mermaidhair #merfur #artbjd #handcrafted #sculpture #art #doll #artdoll #rini #silverhair #hairdress #haircouture #mulberrysilk #bjd #emiliesteele #midnoir #dollphotography
