entanglement

Lizzy finn

Entanglement is a display of costumed dolls accompanied by a collection of fiber creations, nesting the bodies in embellishment that reflects their imagined spirits.

The creator of this body of work, Lizzy Finn, is from New York and graduated from the Rhode Island School of Design’s Textiles BFA program in spring of 2024. Her practice is inspired by the fantasy of femininity and the inherited duality of fear and desire for authenticity in a world infatuated by fabricated personhood.
