Feral Doll #1: Tribelle
I got a box of old doll parts and have been putting together what I think of as “the feral dolls”. They are a bit of statement about dolls and femininity–but you don’t need to take them all that seriously. This is the first of them to be more-or-less finished. She may need a little more detailing. Once I have them finished the feral dolls will be free to good homes (should anyone want them).
Tribelle
Tribelle is a counter-culture artiste. She is very concerned with being beautiful and creating beauty, but constantly worried that people night discover that her deliberately obscure symbolism of her paintings covers up a complete lack of anything meaningful in their content. Her work is as exquisite but as hollow as her bell-shaped head.
Welcome to the world of the feral dolls :)
Too cool! I particularly like the bell head which looks like armour - perhaps to protect her from the slings and arrows of artistic criticism.
The more I look at her the more I like her. I think the head also makes her look a little bit vulnerable.
LOL, the bell as a face….love it. You know I never played with dolls as a kid, something that really disappointed my mother. I was such a tomboy.
Thanks for the response in pm the other day, man was I confused.
