progress so far

I want to convey to the audience the uncanny fearful feeling I get when Im around dolls and I will achieve this by using mediums such as photography and sculpture and by making simple simple but effective changes to the dolls to make them unfamiliar and uncanny to the viewer.

these are a few picture of my studio space...

I then started to experiment with sculpture and casting the dolls head with plaster

"Pediophobia" the fear of dolls

As a child I used to play with dolls, taking care of them as if they were actually alive, bringing them everywhere with me. Until one night I was about 7, I woke up suddenly, I shared a room with my sisters back then, they were not in their beds that night instead a doll lay on my sisters bed, its head slowly started to turn anticlockwise, I frantically rubbed my eyes, the head didnt stop turning. I screamed hysterically and ran into my parent's room. After that night I couldn't sleep in the same room as a doll, i didnt play with them anymore, I was extremely terrified of them. It was probably a dream but it was so real it terrified me all the same.  Evenn to this day I get an uncanny feeling when i am around dolls.
