Seeing 2010 (#13)

For your consideration: an entry from the Christmas Mannequins series.

This piece offers yet another insight as to how marketers may have come to view their clientele: half-brained and prone to fuzzy thinking. I find it surreal that the modern notion of chic entails utterly featureless figures only superficially mimicking the beauty of the human form. Then again, this may be just a store window's homage to a slice of cubism.

Belated update: a viewer of this entry replied with a single word comment, which would have made a deliciously succinct title: Lobotomy.
