Heather Benning - The Dollhouse Project

Heather Benning is an artist who underwent an 8 year project to convert an abandoned 1960's Farmhouse into an open sided Dollhouse design. As an installation piece, the house was left open to the public in 2007 and remained open for 6 years until unsafe to keep and burnt down.
I think this piece relates to the aspect of our dollhouse project as alike we are doing with the storage box for Wham, the artist has converted a desolate object into a homelike environment again, with the piece once being an abandoned home, to being a home that is now still not lived in but very much a homely and recognisable dollhouse design.
