Sculpture. Mixed media. Wood, fabric, dolls, lights.

This is a detail photo of the Nite-Nite Light. The full piece contains seven dolls inside of a wooden mount. The dolls heads have been replaced with lights. This work is inspired by a statistic from Indian economist Amartya Sen. She estimates more that 100 million women are missing from the planet due to gender-selective infanticide, or gendercide.

2009.
