These seriously scary ‘Objects of Curiosity’ dolls were created by Dan Levin, and quite honestly, they freak me right out. I mean that, not just saying it for effect.
There is something so very wrong, but so very right, about the combination of doll parts and the remnants of marine animals.
The Barbie Prawn is a particularly fine touch whereas the crab claw as a hand is just wrong on every level.
A trend not to share with your children.
