The series of paintings, Cyborg Dolls, explores a complex theme: it delves into the significance of dolls as symbols of lost childhood and everything they represent in that context. The dolls in the paintings bridge the past (as they appear damaged, old, and worn) with the future, incorporating futuristic, cyborg elements. This juxtaposition creates a new entity that symbolizes both decay and renewal. In today’s modern world, traditional dolls are vanishing, while cyborgs offer new possibilities. The painting technique reflects a realistic-renaissance approach, sparking a conversation about the role and relevance of painting and imagery in our technologically advanced society.
