Whatever you may envision the everyday American to be, chances are calculated arrangements of sex dolls aren’t the first images that come to mind. Yet this is the bread & butter of artist Stacy Leigh’s photographic series, average americans (that happen to be sex dolls), stunning images of hyper-human sex dolls in often precarious scenarios.
The artist, who purchased her first sex doll in 2004, emphasizes the dolls’ eerily human-but-not-quite quality in her works. With a cursory glance, these images could easily be mistaken for snapshots of domestic scenes, portraits of Leigh’s friends, and David LaChapelle-style tableaus. Yet a slowed-down and patient look reveals the uncanny valley feel inherent to these works, completely devoid of human presence, occupied solely by 100-pound silicone dolls with no pulse.

average americans, a continuation of the artist’s 12-year exploration of sex doll photography, almost feels like a random assortment of works, with images stylistically alternating between horizontal and vertical, color and black-and-white, intimate close-ups and highly composed studio scenes. In one shot, a sex doll examines the anatomy of another, removing its prosthetic face to reveal its inner machinations. In another image, a Nan Goldin-esque bedroom shot reveals two sex dolls seemingly post-coitus. In yet another, a doll is dressed like Marie Antoinette with her signature dog on her lap.
