Artist Statement for Robbin Baker
|
|
|
All of my art is inspired either from music that I hear or images that pop into my head unannounced. Sometimes the image is there when I awake from a dream, sometimes it just appears. Often it is un-formed but the aura of the image is playing in my head - popping in and out like a game of hide and seek. When the image is illusive I'll often go and find images online that make up the form of what I need to create. I'm not above finding a nice piece of unlicensed clip art and using it as the basic form of the piece. In that way I can hold the image long enough to produce a piece.
The dolls often have no pre-formed image in my mind. Rather, they are beings who develop in my hands. Gnomes, Tooth Fairies, Dream Dolls and Personal Empowerment Dolls all begin as one of three basic doll forms I'm currently using. The persona they develop is a mystery - even to me - until it's finished. Then I realize what I've created, or at least brought forward into the tangible realm.
