Plastic Doll Faces
This is a lovely series of faces composed of plastic toys, made by Australian based sculptor and printmaker Frey Jobbins. She was born in Johannesburg, South Africa but grew up in West Sydney, Australia. These toy assemblages are part of her humorous side, while her print making is her ‘voice’.
“I am interested in generating a range of responses to existing cultural objects, which have been placed out of context. The irony of my plastic works is that I take a material that was created to be touched, and I make it untouchable as an artwork.”
