Barbie is the epitome of self-assuredness, an embodiment of unapologetic confidence in her pursuit of the good life. Beyond the glamour and gloss, Barbie represents more than just a plaything. She mirrors our collective desires and dreams. In her ever-changing personas, careers, and styles, Barbie reflects the fluidity of identity and the limitless possibilities of self-reinvention. She challenges societal norms and pushes boundaries, reminding us that we can be whoever we want to be, that our dreams are attainable.

It was a joy to delve into the world of Barbie to explore the duality of her character: the materialistic allure and the empowering message she carries. Through these artworks I play with unraveling the paradoxes and juxtapositions that make her a symbol of both frivolity and feminism. Barbie's journey is a reflection of our own, and by embracing her, we can find the strength to redefine and shape our narratives in this crazy materialistic world.
I am so excited to have an artwork in the Barbie show at the Girls Who Paint Gallery in beautiful historic Kensington, MD. Get yourself dolled up and join me at the reception September 28th, 5:30 pm - 7:30 pm.
