This Catawiki auction ran from 10 to 18 August 2025 and has ended. The original lot description appears below.

In French, 'femme coupée' means 'the woman cut' or 'fragmented.' However, in this photograph, we do not see a woman but a doll and its story.

This doll has lived through a madness: dancing, playing, and celebrating so much that it lost part of its body in the chaos. The vibrant colors, sparkling confetti, and its serene expression create a disturbing contrast, as if capturing the exact moment where fantasy and reality collide.

The image explores the tension between fragility and excess, the idea of losing oneself in pleasure until breaking, transforming into a character within their own surreal story.
