le art

My project started with a ballet shoe and I'll skip the life story but it's taking a turn toward questioning identity. And in another sub idea deviating from social norms. Anyway say, how a dancer in the corps de ballet puts everything into dancing but only to look the exact same as everybody else in the corps, and so blah blah what I did here was build a little 'stage' with mirrors on it. Then I photocopied a barbie doll and made four identical puppets with candles on sticks. And cut out four snowflakes. Because no two snowflakes are the same. So for example even if a dancer is dancing in The Nutcracker where she is dancing as an identical corps snowflake, she is actually an individual person. See?
