Hanging Doll

Description

This is a painting inspired by this poem by :iconandaelentari:
Hanging BarbieA thought from the past
no, a memory
darkness in the basement
shadow of a doubt
until your eyes land
upon the string around her neck
crushed realities
but no nightmares
just strange peace.


I was so touched by its haunting and gentle darkness and I just couldn't resist express the feeling visually. Though, the "cyborg" thing is a personal interpretation :)

Very good work! The framing seems a bit claustrophobic though. Maybe it's just me. On the other hand, I love how that shaft of light or window or whatever it is does a great job at unbalancing the image. Otherwise, it would have been way too symmetric.
