Juliane with Anna and Karen. More about Juliane in a later post. These sculpts are inspired by the mug shots and criminal records of real women I learned about in the book "Kvinder på kanten. Et forbryderalbum Odense 1879-1918" by Søren Marquardt Frederiksen". (Women on the edge. An album of

Karen Nielsen was born in 1867. She was not married, worked as day labourer and maid, and was convicted 11 times for petty theft. I learned about her and other women in similar situations in the book "Kvinder på kanten" about 36 convicted women in my hometown over 40 years around 1900, based on

First try doing a thanjavur dancing doll. She can stand but not really move. The dress is a Danish bronze age bog find. The 17 year old Egtved girl wearing it was buried a summer's day around 1370 BCE

Inspired by Babylonian Ishtar gate and Ishtar, god of war and sexual love. Why is that a common combination? She is often pictured with a lion, therefore the hair. Like how the painting on her face got a bit rough. I haven't figured out how best to use glass inclusions. Box 12 cm #polymerclay
