Sister Susan transforms a classic doll into the figure of a babified nun—beautiful, innocent, and impossibly perfect. It examines the tension between sanctity and artificiality, questioning how societal ideals infantilize and romanticize women, while concealing complex identities behind surface appearances.
This painting is part of a series that explores the complex intersections of femininity, identity, and cultural expectation through the lens of dolls—objects that are at once familiar, comforting, and unsettling.
