About The Work
Laurie Simmons's photographs make use of dummies and dolls to create dreamlike, albeit realistically captured scenes. In Woman Listening to the Radio, a small, doll-like figure has been placed in a tiny replica of a midcentury living room with an old fashioned radio, the irony of course being that the inanimate subject cannot actually hear, and the radio is just a prop.
