Freya Jobbins

Freya Jobbins is an Australian artist who contacted me recently because she thought I might be interested in checking out her work… and of course I was, VERY interested!

These busts, or "Morphies" as she calls them, are comprised of discarded dolls/plastic toys and re-assembled into 3D heads. Too fun! To learn more out Freya and meet her wonderful "Morphie" characters, check out her website: freyajobbins.com

Of her work Freya says, "They have been 'labeled' as PROVOCATIVE HUMOUROUS & DISTURBING - I love this description."

What do you guys think? Pretty cool right?

Wow, really cool indeed!! And wow, I can't even imagine how much work it is - one head must take a while to create too!!

They remind me for Giuseppe Arcimboldo's paintings of people comprised of vegetables or animals.
