My souvenir from the Hotel Palace in Paris is the magazine Palace Costes. It is really something special - very French - and I love the beautiful photography in it. There was one article that caught my attention: "Infomania" about the artist Marina Bychkova and a shoot with dolls...
Schaut euch unbedingt ihre Homepage www.enchanteddoll.com an, da seht ihr viele weitere Bilder, die einfach unglaublich sind! Die Künstlerin sagt über sich selbst und ihre Arbeit:
You have to visit her homepage www.enchanteddoll.com, you can see a lot more pictures of her dolls that are just unbelievable! The artist about herself and her work:
My need to work with dolls became evident as a calling when I was six years old. As a child I became painfully aware and appalled at the mediocrity and the uninspired dullness of mass-produced dolls. This profound frustration coupled with my natural sensibilities inspired me to create my own dolls, suited to my own ideas of feminine beauty. A particular point of interest for me was not only the life-like articulation of the body, but also the beautiful balance between a delicate form and an extraordinary function of a doll.
When I needed to come up with brand name to give my dolls an identity, I decided to name them after Paul Gallico’s fictional, short story called “Enchanted Doll”, where a young woman creates dolls with so much love that they enchant people at first sight with their compelling, delicate, life-like beauty.
And this is my goal also.
