Once again I wanted to explore the art of puppetry: this time in the form of a stop-motion animation. I have created what I like to refer to as, the valley of the broken dolls. They are all patched together like a macabre quilt. Various body parts are missing and have, as a matter of fact, become their own entities. The dolls only want to be whole again. They band together to raise an evil doll spirit from the dead to make them whole again. Apparently they never heard of the phrase “be careful what you wish for.” They do become whole. One whole being that is. All individuality is stripped away as they melt together into one ball of oozing doll parts.
