Brutality of human nature depicted as distorted love of bobby and
ken

There have been numerous controversies on Barbie doll owing to
its inborn duplicity and abnormal figure.
Despite these critics, Barbie doll is still an idol for many children
and women. Besides it’s been a long time
to appear black Barbie dolls by a lot of disputes and there is
discrimination between white and black Barbie
dolls like the real world. People’s dual aspect and mentality
towards Barbie doll became the motive of
choosing Barbie doll as a main material for my work.I made the
new familiar time and space that looks like a real world where
Barbie dolls actually live.
I express brutality of human nature with distorted love of bobby
and ken.
