Beth Robinson: Strange Dolls

January 26, 2011 By Wendy Campbell

Beth Robinson is a self-taught artist based in Vermont, New England who has been sculpting her very unique dolls since 2003.  Previously a painter and illustrator, Beth changed course when a friend introduced her to Japanese ball-joint dolls.

Clearly not meant for children, each of Robinson’s “little people” is hand made using polymer clays, vintage fabrics, acrylic paint, and sometimes real human hair or teeth.  Each oddly proportioned, strangely dressed character is one of a kind, having its own individual story. Robinson’s dolls are a mix of not quite creepy and darkly cute, and are a unique merger of design, sculpting, painting, and sewing.

Robinson’s work has been shown in galleries throughout the USA, England, the Netherlands and Germany.  As well, her dolls have been featured in magazines such as Art Doll Quarterly, SPIN, Stuff, Maxim (UK and Hong Kong), Rue Morgue (Canada), Nokia CP (Turkey), RIP (Russia), and Nordic Vision (Norway).
