- Samenvatting:
- Monster or marvel, totem or fetish, icon or idol, every doll created by contemporary French artist Michel Nedjar is a memento mori, a lamentation. These dolls both wound and protect. They indicate those terrors, inexorable and insidious, that exist not only in the world, but also within ourselves. Nedjar: The doll is my survival. The doll is what compels me not to lose my humanity. What is a doll? The doll is the thing that helped me to not flounder. The doll is what gave my existence its manner of seeing the world. What is a doll? That is what I still want to know. (provided by publisher)
