Barbie Flambé

Some people said it would be a shame to burn my work, and as fond as I was of what I had made, there was only reason I made this piece:


Burn the witch! Burn her!




















Don't feel too badly for her; she died a noble death: for art. When I found her for fifty cents in the thrift store, she had already been victim of a dog attack. The poor one armed Barbie would never again have a little girl choose her to play with, to grow up loathing her thunder thighs, bulging belly, and huge ass without realizing why, thus making her the perfect subject and "sacrifice".

  3. Interesting experiment.
    I bet you didn't tell the seller at the thrift shop what you intended to do with the poor doll..
