This work is a mixed-media exploration into the joy that clowns were created to inspire. Through photography, costume design, and character work, I am attempting to reverse some of the fearsome notoriety that clowns have acquired in pop culture. I created all of the costume elements for the characters from scratch besides the shoes, and styled all props and elements chosen for the photos. Porcelain dolls were customized as miniatures of the full-scale characters.

Made possible with the help of Relena and Dianna.
