Art dolls by Lada Konstantinova

 

 

      In this section I call your attention to my one of a kind dolls. The dolls are grouped in separate "collections". Some collections were made at once, others formed gradually, but each of them has its own theme and own history. The sources of them are very different: theatre, ballet, magazines, movies, shops, impression from travels and meetings with people, images from my dreams. Generally speaking, "dreams" theme is one of my favorites. In a certain sense I am a "dream stalker", and dolls let me possibility to create the other, may be, more perfect world of feeling and sense.

     I have chosen a virtual way of representation of my art dolls as a result of many (and alas, unsatisfactory) attempts to collaborate with the "real" galleries. Unfortunately, each time I was convinced, that my dolls become shrunken and pale on an exhibition, as the modest man is lost in crowd. My dolls do not open its internal world to the first passer, they need a time for looking over not hurrying up anywhere, and this site gives them (and You) such opportunity.
