This one’s called “Barbie Yemanja”

This is a series of art sculptures mixing teenage pop culture and shamanic religious figures. In the following example, the author is asked to imagine the embodiment of two figures in one:

  • Yemanja, the mother goddess of oceans from the Yoruba religion
  • Barbie, the teenage toy
Yemanja and Barbie mermaid

One can also imagine shamanic Ken performing a cleansing or a grounding ritual:

Shaman and Ken

The author can feel free to steal a page from Takashi Murakami’s book:

Thank you Takashi Murakami
