An unapologetic statement of autonomy and power. It challenges the manipulation, objectification, and underestimation that women often face in both personal and societal contexts. The title carries a sharp warning—a reminder that women are not to be treated as playthings or pawns in someone else's game.
Plastic Barbie feet reinforce the sentiment of the piece, and add a layering of abstraction King’s work is known for.
This is a big, bold piece, and demands a collector as such.
