In this series of photographs I have recreated scenes from my own domestic life using vintage dolls to explore my use of technology as an escape from the “mundane of the domestic” described by second-wave feminists. In doing so, I am asking some larger questions: does access to online communities mean a kind of freedom for women at home today? Or does it create a different kind of confinement, an imprisonment in digital culture?
