21st century

What is iconic these days? What do people worship? Admire? Religion is long gone from our minds and hearts. Powerful people? Yes, we mostly admire other people and still it's only because we want to be like them, have what they have. I don't want to make a doll of some rich guy or something, that would be more sculpture than a doll. I also want to maintain the playful look of it. I believe that nowadays everything could become a voodoo doll. Starting from Ipad and ending with a Tedy bear. It's only because these days nothing  is of a huge importance, we have so much that we notice only a little part of everything. That is why my sketches are so random.

I will be knitting my doll and afterwards using technique that is similar to paper mache: I will put my knitted pieces into water with PVA glue,after the material absorbs it the water will dry and PVA glue will make the material a bit more harder and stable.

Sketches:

I thought that this idea would be quite suitable for an Art and Design voodoo doll, but it has too many different pieces and shapes. It would take too much time to make.

For this one I was inspired by an anime Avatar The Las Air Bender. There was this creature Koh the Face Stealer that could take your face if you showed him any kind of emotion. 

The is the sketch that I like the most :

This doll looks playful and has a simple shape that wont take me ages to knit. I decided to go with this idea and concentrate with the size of my doll not the complicity of shape.
