i’m jealous of claire oswalt
Oh my goodness. Brooklyn based artist Claire Oswalt and her wooden paper dolls {ok, I realize that’s not a ‘thing’, but I couldn’t figure out how to describe these amazing pieces?!} are my newest obsession. Graphite and paper on wood, that I assume can pivot thanks to those little pins… although, let’s be honest, I would never have the guts to move these girls into different positions – yep, I’m a rule follower, plus, their perfect symmetry is part of why I love them oh so much.
LOVE. Thank you!
these are so cool- good eye!
They have a slightly socialist air – like the art done then.. do you think balsa wood? So light you could cut it… I am off to check her out.
You do have such an eclectically exhilarating eye.
cheers,

They do capture my interest. I wonder how they are being suspended. Do you think the dolls behind are modified to ‘hold’ the dolls higher on the stack or are the each individually suspended with, perhaps, a stiff wire?
I find method interesting.
I’ve had one of these pinned forever.. thanks for reminding me about her!
