In commemoration of the 50th anniversary of the Mattel Barbie doll, Jocelyn Grivaud re-made iconic famous works of arts using the Barbie doll. Click through to view more pictures!


One day, the idea of extending the happy part of my childhood through pictures I love took shape. Barbie is often criticized for being too blonde, too superficial, too skinny, too “ideal marketing”, too “this” and too “that”…. My aim was to adjust this so famous profile to different emblematic representations.-barbiemamuse.com

By taking the world-famous works and replacing the people represented by Barbie dolls, Jocelyn Grivaud wanted to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the Mattel doll. A diversion placing the Barbie as an icon in our society. -barbiemamuse.com

The Luminarie De Cagna is a cathedral-like structure that was on display at the 2012 Light Festival in Ghent, Belgium. Click through to view more pictures and the video!


Luminarie De Cagna is an Italian family business founded in 1930. Back then on festive occasions the company illuminated buildings and squares with oil and carbide lamps. This was quickly switched to electric lights, and since 2006 only LEDs are used for new projects. The lights are joined to make large curtains of light, which are placed onto buildings or spread out on other objects in the area. In this way, whole streets and even squares are full of light. -lichtfestivalgent.be

Hair Affairs by Dearbhaile Heaney.

This project is a material exploration of the peculiar relationship we have with our hair. By using this material to create objects, the project investigates our largely dichotomous feelings about a substance that bears significant societal and cultural implications. -gold.ac.uk
