Death of a Doll

Death of a Doll (Lot 401), has a profoundly autobiographical, surreal and psychedelic quality linked to the artist's earliest childhood hallucinations. She portrays herself with the butterfly, floating dots and net patterns that surround and engulf to obliterate her physical and emotional sense of self. The vibrant fluorescent contrasting colours used to portray her dress and shoes with her signature dots which are offset by a sharp yellow background with pink nets create a near hallucinatory effect. The result is light and playful yet mesmerising in its rhythmic pattern.
