'Fall & Rise' by Princess Pea
Sculpture Toy, 4.25 x 2.25 inches, Edition of 500
Fall & Rise is the first in the series of The Pea Family Toys. Each toy is conceptualized as a work of art, a miniature sculpture that is made with great attention to detail by award-winning craftsmen in India.
The toys mark the first extension of the artist’s iconic character, Princess Pea, who champions the values and rights of the 'girl-child' in India. Challenging our conception of what constitutes femininity and womanhood, these miniature wooden sculptures remind us to confront issues surrounding women's identity in today's society.
Each limited edition 'Fall and Rise' toy collapses down when pushed from underneath but bounces back when released, embodying the resilience of the Indian girl-child.
