Ear Ring
Artist Margaux Lange makes jewelry and accessories out of Barbie body parts. The result is both intriguing and creepy as hell.
I enjoy the funny juxtaposition of wearing the body, on the body. Barbie has become the accessory instead of being accessorized. I take pleasure in the contrast and contradiction of something mass-produced being transformed and revealed as a unique, handmade, wearable piece of art.
I like the daintiness of many of her pieces; you wouldn’t necessarily notice immediately that the jewelry contains little dismembered body parts, thus enhancing the Zoiks Factor when you looked closer.
Here’s her Website and her Etsy shop.
