WHAT IS THE SIGNIFICANCE OF THE BARBIE DOLL IN THE BUDDHA PAINTINGS?
The Barbie doll is simply another of my stock models and has appeared in other than the Buddha paintings. Her initial appearance in these paintings was more or less accidental, but I liked the counterpoint that Barbie’s ephemeral nature provides to the image of the Buddha and so I kept bringing her back. Whereas the Buddha represents detatchment and serenity, Barbie represents the ephemeral aspect of the world. Flowers on a Buddhist altar have the same significance and also appear in these paintings.
