Margaux Lange re-purposes Barbie doll parts turning them into provocative and wearable jewelry. Margaux sets out to expel an understanding of Barbie that we all hold within us. Part nostalgia, part obsession, Margauxs pieces become an eerie (and intriguing) representation of Barbie within our culture. I was really interested in the unconventional way in which Margaux creates her jewelry, people often think of jewelry as precious or pretty objects that adorn the body. Margauxs jewelry on the other hand is shocking at first, appendages being removed from a body, but then you begin to find the humor that is presented within the pieces.
