'Why do I bother?' said the devil. 'Because you care!' said the angel.
I bought these mannequins for $5 on ebay a few years ago and painted them in Cert III Visual Art. They are called 'The Alana/ Madeline Mannequins because they remind me of the mother and two little girls shot in the Port Arthur Massacre in 1996. Even though there is only two mannequins, one is larger than the other, so it relates to mother/daughter relationships. And one being larger than the other also represents big sister/little sister, one looking after the other, most of the time.
I don't have good relationships with my family members anymore, but it doesn't mean I don't care! If only they realised what they're missing out on!
