As we were shifting through the Sunday Guardian online this past weekend, we caught this series of Barbie recreated in scenes of masterworks from some of the most-well known painters to ever paint. French artist Jocelyne Grivaud took the iconic doll and matched her up with icons of fine art.

A sublime encounter in a Tokyo toy shop led artist Mariel Clayton into the surreal world of Japanese miniatures, and ultimately to the stories that could be told with them.

Poor Barbie dolls, never had a clue that their demise would be in a large fry bag.
