About the Artist

DD-Anne was born in Shanghai, and after studying Bioinformatics at university decided this career choice wasn’t for her, so in 2006 became a self-taught doll artist. She does all of the work herself from sculpting to fashion design. DD-Anne does not have a long arts biography, and has not yet exhibit her work in an art gallery. However, she recently won the Pandora Platinum Art Doll Prize in Russia, and was the first person to receive all of the judges’ votes in the history of the Prize.

“Although a lot of people tell me “you are a true artist”, coming from a non-art background and without the support from my family, it has been difficult to open the door to the art world.”

“Queen of Hearts”: She is from my doll series ‘Alice in Underland’. The initial inspiration was ‘famine and cannibalism’ which came from my parents’ childhood memories.
