"My dolls all tell me who they are as I make them. It is simply beyond my control. . . and I am thankful to them for allowing me to be involved in their happenings." -- Christy Kane
Christy Kane graduated from NYU with a degree in photography. She creates, and then photographs her life size dolls to illustrate her stories. The smaller dolls all come with a description of why they are the way they are, and often tell you what to do to keep them happy. Her influences range from Silent Films, Hillaire Belloc's Cautionary Tales for Children, all kinds of music, Edward Gorey, and the stories of E. T. A. Hoffman to name but a few.
Christy creates dolls that one will either easily relate to, or perhaps fail to understand entirely. The dolls are all their own person, and as she stated above it is simply beyond her control. The photos you see on this site will be part of her first doll storybook, to be released in early 2006.
Artist and storyteller Christy Kane creates life size, one-of-a-kind, handmade dolls then photographs them in antique settings to illustrate her original stories of social misfits. She is a triple threat whose dolls have remarkably distinct personalities, whose photographs are nuanced and richly detailed, and whose stories are haunting and unforgettable. This collection of stories includes the tales of: * Lily (who has lost nine fingers, one-by-one, due to her careless fascination with a sewing machine), * Polly (who has been unable to stop traveling the world since receiving a pair of roller-skates on her fifteenth birthday), * Callalilly (whose unchecked temper has doomed her to becoming a hook-handed piano player), * The triplets Hyacinth, Azaeleah and Violah (whose baby sister Wisteria has gone missing under troubling and mysterious circumstances). dolls and stories © Christy Kane
