Artist Creates Porcelain Dolls With A Horrific Twist That Will Give You Nightmares

via

It is not easy to work with Porcelain.

And yet this particular artist chooses to buy old porcelain dolls off auctions and give them a new coat of paint so to speak. Rather than bringing these figurines to their original beauty, she likes to put a horrific twist on each and every one of her works. From detaching the head of the lady figurine to showing their intestines outside of the body, there are many things wrong with these dolls.

And not one of those is the artist’s style. Because I absolutely adore her unique take and she aptly calls this project the ‘Broken Ladies’. We are not aware of the inspiration behind her work but I can safely say I have never seen anything like it and that is actually a good thing. You can take a look for yourself by scrolling. Some of you might feel a bit uncomfortable with the dolls so here is your warning.
