Continuation of the Scary Dolls theme.

The word Ugliness has several meanings. Now I rather mean hooliganism, a game, and not Ugliness.

The dolls of the authors presented here are beautiful!

For me, of course, there is no dispute about tastes.

We buy dolls emotionally.

After all, they touch something in the heart, we begin to empathize and sympathize.

You had such a thing that you look at a doll - and everything in it seems to be good? And the face, and clothes, and modeling, and accessories. And it causes, to put it mildly, rejection. Was it, confess?

And vice versa, you look like an imperfectly made character, and he touches something in you. Something deeply personal.

Well, if it is done perfectly, and it evokes deep feelings, then it is generally the highest level.

Liz Gilbert has words about angels and demons in her book Eat Pray Love. She writes that by sight you cannot distinguish who is who. And only then, when they leave, it becomes clear. After communicating with an angel, you feel joy, lightness, hope. And vice versa.

What am I doing!

And to the fact that with dolls the same thing. Each has the personality of the author, and it cannot be hidden. All our problems, imbalances, sadness, joy are reflected in them.

Today I want to tell you about the authors whom you probably know.

it Sandra (Sandra Arteaga), artist from Barcelona and Elena (Elena Zharova) from Russia. Both artists work in a style close to Horror.

Characters: witches of different stripes, monsters large and small. But how cool and delicious they are! Wonderful professional sculpting, thoughtful outfit, and what I really appreciate are the wonderful color combinations. Wrinkles, protruding teeth, rags, hanging threads - all this is collected in wonderful images. I want to examine and examine the dolls, put them off and return to them again.

Interestingly, both Elena and Sandra work with sketches, which is a rarity today.

The images themselves are wonderful and admirable. It's very funny to look at Sandra's account. She, in the form of funny monsters, herself is present in the photo. And looking at them, you smile.

And why? Yes, because despite the theme, a cheerful, cool person appears. Playing witches, not being a witch.

I saw Elena's works live at the exhibition. It's very nice! Small works of art.

It is joyful that in our puppet world you can find anything your heart desires!

MAGIC VARIETY!
