Description

This doll is called ‘Persephone’. She is named after the Greek goddess Persephone, daughter of Zeus and Demeter. She is the goddess of the Underworld, springtime, flowers and vegetation.

Her whole body is wrapped in painted scraps of blue and grey fabric. The beaded crown is made of various types of grey and black beads some of which were painted. Her forehead has a pineal eye intended to represent psychic perception. At chest level there is a hand sculpted clay part with lines representing a tree symbol. This is a one-of-a-kind creation. I don’t use molds for polymer clay sculpture so all facial features are completely unique.

All her limbs including her head are moveable so she is displayable in any position including suspension from a wall or board (as pictured). There is a small looped ribbon attached to her back.

Approximate measurements; Length: 30cm (Highest point from top of crown to bottom of legs) and Width: 10cm (arms in downward position).

Materials included; Polymer clay, acrylic paint, cotton thread, cotton fabric, hot-melt adhesive, aluminium wire, mixed beads.

  • I am a multi-faceted artist. I have been making various forms of art all my life. My days are spent putting work, passion and love into the things I do. I'm very experimental with a lot of my art. I like to improvise as I'm going along and let my subconscious mind express itself through different methods and materials. My art is the most important thing to me because it is my therapy. In times of distress and sadness I bury myself in creativity and work. I'm autistic as well as regularly suffering with anxiety and depression. Life is an uphill battle and since childhood I've always found that creating is my only true solace.

    My most recent projects have been focused around mixed media textile art. In addition to this I also sculpt clay faces and either alter or hand-make dolls and anthropomorphic sculptures. Some of my accomplishments as an artist are; illustrating 15 children's books for author Chrisi E. Da Pavlova, selling artworks and handcrafted items on Etsy and Ebay for over 8 years, having my art featured in American author Tantra Bensko's book 'Word Swell', earning a First and National Diploma in Art and completing a year studying Illustration, BA Hons at Lincoln University.
