Description

Collectible Surgi Doll by Danielle Coleman: acrylic paint, duct tape, craft embellishments, repurposed fabric, table cloth, thread, yarn


Considering the love and heart that is required to healing, textiles operate as a necessity to my healing process. Floral in Pink was created in the memory of seeking the healing touch of my grandmother in her comforting home of vintage knitted blankets and floral pillows as a child.

Special Instructions

Coleman explores the distaste or taboo of communicating romance within visual works of art. The language of kitsch allows the work to be excessive and garish, overly sentimental and ironic. Coleman plays with the constructed, idealized, romantic relationship rituals that are practised today commercially through the language of craft.
