Description Now that I am free...I don't want to be.

Photos by Mike at [link]
Model, make-up, hair, concept and styling- me

I know marionettes have been done to death, but the concept sort of just happened during the shoot, but I liked this ending better.

The concept came to me once the strings were cut..I thought to myself..now what? What does the puppet do now that it's alone and free?
It is open to interpretation though.

im being a marionette doll for halloween , and im not sure what to do as far as making the marionette handle or where to place it? i was just going to have it hang on my back but i kinda wanted it suspended over my head but not sure if there is a way to go about doing that without making it strange looking

papa-paparazzi [2009-05-16 12:29:03 +0000 UTC]

sometimes, it feels like it's easier just to give up, and be controlled, than it is to have your own mind. but it's not all that fun being locked up with no voice. but having a voice comes with risks: being ridiculed, being ostracized, or even put to death. no wonder she doesn't want to be free, poor puppet.

this series is my favorite out of your gallery so far.

It's a one of a kind I've had for ages. Bought locally at a goth shop. I wear it to death so I need a new one.

DelayedReality In reply to Countess-Grotesque [2009-05-16 18:17:25 +0000 UTC]

It's gorgeous! I figured you'd had it custom made at the very least.

I get a lot of my corsets from Versatile Fashions [link] - they do some good work.

I love the ending of this puppet's story.
It doesn't matter that it's been done so often, you've certainly given it your own little twist and it works wonderfully!! =]

I love the one where the "puppet" is just sitting there motionless. The expression seems to have a slight morbid tone, but still maintains innocence. I really like it.

PS: I love your boots, like, way more than I should. Where did you get them??

Great concept. Man know that corset looks like it was a beast to wear for any length of time.
