Margaux Lange
For Barbie’s lovers, but also for all those who ever wished to see Barbie dead and dismantled…
as usual, the fine balance in between desire and disgust in Margaux Lange‘s jewels…
“Whether you love her or hate her, there are few who feel neutral about the plastic princess. I am fascinated with who she is as a cultural icon, her distinguished celebrity status, and the enormous impact she has had on our society. Specifically, I’m intrigued with her influence in defining gender roles of women in contemporary American culture…
…I enjoy the funny juxtaposition of wearing the body, on the body. Barbie has become the accessory instead of being accessorized. I take pleasure in the contrast and contradiction of something mass-produced being transformed and revealed as a unique, handmade, wearable piece of art.”
affascinanti e morbosamente belli. complimenti per la ricerca.
Thanks so much for the blog nod! I appreciate it very much :-) Cheers!
I am surprised I published a post on my blog about the work of this artist and not a thank you. ok, I understand…conveniences.
Dear “Denim & Shoes”, I am surprised to find out that you’ve posted such a comment in here. Conveniences? Dopn’t know what kind of conveneinces you’re talking about, as this blog is my hobby and as a hobby comes after my other 3 jobs…
Well sounds to me that’s a little envy in between your lines. Doesn’t matter, I’ll keep on doing my thing. And sure I’m not doing this to go checking if someone comes to write down thanks or not…
