While I was designing and painting my big piece I was experimenting with Barbies in order to explore the concept of "destroyed beauty". In my mind, Barbie was almost the idolized product for beauty and was a “model" for perfection for everyday women; however this need for perfection and beauty often led to the woman’s own demise. This idea of “decay” and “destruction” of things beautiful can be reflected within the urban environment I see around me. How there were buildings, plant life, people who once were all beautiful have been destroyed and decayed over time.
