Bio
Spirit Doll is an artist, model, performer and muse based in the UK. His work takes many forms including self portraits, performance, drawing, dance, sculpture and character creation in his own unique and distinct style that is born from his own lived experience, aesthetics and influences.
Spirit Doll is your sensual and subversive shapeshifting spirit guide. Transforming in front of your very eyes- playing, flirting with life. He is a androgynous, gender bending work of art leading you down erotic black holes and cracking open your mind to new realities. Seductive mover, vessel for the sacred dance and creations of the creature within. Spirit Doll plays with sex, gender, darkness, laughter, through his body, movement and art, creating wild, filthy and expansive dreams appear in front of your very eyes.
Spirit Doll seeks to create art that pushes boundaries, expands his growth and to invite others into his world. His work is a reflection for others to question their own limiting self’s and to be that guiding light of expansion.
His visual practice is continually growing and being shaped in many kinds of ways, in the various forms it takes including his collaborations and new skills that he learns. He is particularly influenced by his journey through pole dance, burlesque, drag and 5 rhythms. Collaboration and working with others play a big part of his practice.
He is currently part of artist duo Mastolf & Mastej, running the Others’ Market, resident gogo dancer at Laundry day and modelling/performing for other artists/collabs alongside his own vast creative practices.
