T H E A R T O F T R A N S F O R M A T I O N The cusp of perfection and imperfection in the theme of the work of artist Nicolette Bénard. This is a theme one finds in her jewellery as well as in her latest project ‘Project B’, a series of wall objects in plexiglass. In Project B. Nicolette investigates a doll position as an icon of beauty – the sum of the perfect, indulgent women – and asks: is it ideal beauty or false idealism? Project B. is in a borderland between being adorable and absurd, being quite foreign and quite recognizable at the same time; because behind the balls of fabric, under the all-absorbing flowers and behind what looks like cement with nails in, we can still see a doll’s fastidious hands and the elegant legs stick out. A doll does however, form the ideal object to re-shape and re-imagine. With a wink and a healthy dose of humor, Nicolette works on her dolls and transforms them to.....yes, to what exactly?
