Original Art Bronze — Unique Pieces, stamped “1/1 – P U” in the bronze.

The doll is humanity’s first toy. No culture is without it: everywhere, in every age, rags have been sewn together to give a body to what we love. The Doodles descend from this lineage.

Each Doodle is unique. It is born on a given day, at a given hour, and exists only once. What is born once is not born again: in lost-wax casting, the mould dies in the birth — no piece can ever be made again.

Created in 2013, the centenary year of Marcel Duchamp’s first ready-made, the Doodles bear the title Ready-Made Myself: a nod to the notion of the ready-made and to the idea of the “handmade” — for George carries out every stage herself, from the wax to the chasing.

Three formats

The Doodles come in three sizes:

Doodle — 33 cm. The original form, a doll of memory.
Tiki Popa’a — 75 cm. Inspired by the civilisations of the Pacific; the tiki, the Maori “man-god”, a protective talisman.
Tavana Rahi — 150 cm and above. Polynesian in inspiration, the guardian of the place — named after the Tahitian village chief, wise and respected.
