Hello Dolly

Who doesn't love creepy old dolls? When I was little I wasn't interested in playing with old dolls, I preferred my 80's-style plastic ones to the more breakable porcelain. But I felt sorry for them, that their original owner grew up and left them behind.

It's weird when the doll parts are grouped together, but kind of beautiful too. I like things that walk the fine line between disturbing/ugly/strange and beautiful.





And here are some photos accompanied by sound clips of a quirky guy in Kentucky who collects doll parts and other people's 'castaway' displays them around his yard. Photos by David Stephenson. I found this on Kentucky.com
