Holly Anderson
This work primarily seeks to challenge the preconceptions of Reborn Dolls, their owners and creators. The world of Reborns is one of extreme attention to life-like detail and an evident sense of care and affection; everything that comes with having, and caring for, a real baby has been emulated with the dolls. Purchasers buy Reborns for a wide variety of reasons, from simply wanting to form a collection as someone would stamps or antiques, to a method of therapy after the loss of a child. Although the intriguing world of Reborns appeals quite narrowly to a very specific demographic, it is also representative of modern society as a whole and its obsession with the substitution of reality with idealized imitations of life.
