Amber Hawk-Swanson’s Doll
January 31, 2008
Sex TV Canada recently profiled Chicago multi-media artist Amber Hawk-Swanson and her work with Amber Doll, a silicone replica (a Real Doll) of herself. The artist’s website (www.amberhawkswanson.com) features a video including entertaining bits of Amber and Amber Doll’s wedding reception and disturbing footage of Amber Doll tailgating at a Bears/Packers game (drunk “dudes” at a football game + a Real Doll = scary). The ways in which people react to and interact with Amber Doll reveals much about them, and perhaps even their views of women in general?
