Doll face is a strange piece with many powerful concepts, they are easily realised but still debatable.
The video is of a robot in a box with a doll face. Next to her is a TV which switches on.
The screen focuses on a woman which either suggests that this image is more important to the doll or maybe that the image is being forced upon her, which i think represents the force of the media.
The doll begins to apply make up to her face to make herself look like the woman on the TV which shows that she is not happy with herself, and this is maybe the reason for the robotic body.
She stretches for the TV as it moves away, she keeps reaching out for the TV and breaks. I think that it symbolises people in everyday life pushing themselves to breaking point to achieve the unachievable.
The craft of the piece is video animation with a lot of detail making it seem realistic even though it is a very surreal piece.
