Barbie girl Margaux Lange from NY

How do you describe your work?

My Plastic Body Series is art jewelry made with Barbie doll parts, sterling silver, and

resin. Itʼs an examination and celebration of my own, as well as pop culturesʼrelationship with Barbie.

What inspired you to become a jewelry artist?

My first introduction to silversmithing was in high school (Lake George, NY) which was

very fortunate to offer a jewelry class to its students. However I didnʼt know I wanted to

become a studio jeweler until college (BFA: The Maryland Institute College of Art,

Baltimore, MD. 2001) I was a General Fine Arts major and I bounced around from

various mediums until I decided to concentrate on metals my junior year.

Jewelry was a way of getting Art off of the wall and on to the body so it could be more

intimately shared, experienced and literally felt.

How did you first get the idea to make jewelry out of Barbie dolls?

Barbie made her debut in my artwork in high school and then again in various

incarnations throughout college (drawings, sculptures, etc) I became interested in

incorporating found objects into my jewelry work and because I had done other artworks

with Barbie in the past, it felt natural to try her out in the jewelry realm. It was an unusual

idea with a strong personal connection for me, so it felt right. The Plastic Body Seriescontinued to grow from there.

Tatilimizin en iyi yani suprizlerle karsilasmaktir, bagzen bir ask , bagzen harika bir deniz, bagzen yesilin tum tonu doga, bagzende  enfes yemekler... bir  cumartesi  hirvatistanin kucuk kasabalarindan  birinde kaybolmak, o kaybolusta bir festival bulmak... enfes balkan muzikleri esliginde, 1 km  boyunca deniz urunleri, peynir ve sarap servisi  yapilan bu festivalde dolanmaktan, otel aramayi unutup geceyi arabanin arka koltugunda uyuyarak gecirmek...<3
