Marina Bychkova's Doll

    Dolls do not have genitals.

    Unless it's Marina Bychkova's. This doll is not meant for playing or make-believe. Concealed under her ebony hair and delicately beaded gown are bruises suggestive of corporeal suffering and life lost forever. Nontheless, her beauty will draw you in. She was molded by hand to be admired. Displayed. Put in a glass coffin, as a necrophiliac would  in the name of love and an insanely immense reverence of his corpse bride.  She is a beautiful, sensual, existential work of art.
