LilliandTom
These are the adventures of Lilli&Tom my life-size cloth dolls. They are Brisbane dolls - Brisbane people. Lilli&Tom relish individuals who express themselves in creative ways. Lilli&Tom are role models: they participate in all aspects of life, and are curious about the new and different experiences that the arts has to offer.

trouble in paradise....
Its important to note that Lilli&Tom are not real people. Lilli&Tom are not therefore necessarily subject to the winds of emotional friction. Since it's not my purpose to involve them in the troubles of life but rather to be more like minor demi-gods (if you like) to be, indeed, in paradise. In this sense there cannot be any trouble. I want to remind people that for all their daily angst our lives are very privileged and we should respect this gift as much as possible, by enjoying it. William Wordsworth refered to this feeling as natural piety.
Another comment I have received of this shot has been, that seeing them from the back gives them a greater feeling of life-likeness. More in the scene. Its always interesting to hear the variety of interpretations.
