Joseph Cornell...Uh, Who is That?

It's time for another update Blogger World.

Today is a on a fellow named Joseph Cornell. Cornell was an American artist and sculptor known best for his assemblage, artistic composition made from found odds and ends, pieces. The boxes are usual simple with a glass pane front, nothing too fancy, and are usually interactive and meant to be handled.

So, I searched and searched for a Joseph Cornell box that caught my attention and I came up with...

 
Bebe Marie

 The creepiest box that I have ever seen. This is Cornell's Bebe Marie. Honestly, this is one of the creepiest things that I've seen in a while. The girl is peaking through the twigs and sticks almost like a peeping tom (Have to wonder who she was suppose to be spying on). It also reminds me of Big Baby from Toy Story 3, minus the lazy eye.
