Nesting Dolls

The nesting doll series uses the iconic form but maintains a minimalist aesthetic to provide the viewer with space to develop their own stories and emotions into the work. Each nesting doll was created with a matte finish, except for the face which retains the natural glass surface, allowing the viewer to see their own reflection in the doll as they view and stack the dolls, prompting a conversation; What are our layers? How and to whom do we choose to reveal them?
