Blank My Little Ponies were given to local artists to design and tomorrow’s event features all of the results. Mediums include sculpture, photography and dioramas. After the exhibit, all of the ponies will be auctioned on eBay. The best part of this art project is that all proceeds go to Just Food, an educational and agricultural non-profits in the city.

I once tried to do a light installation piece with a bunch of bald, naked Barbies I stumbled upon in my father’s basement that my sisters and I had abandoned decades ago. I decided against the idea since I realized it might be too much of a fire hazard and burning plastic stinks. No worries, I’ve alerted the MoMa that the project is on hold until further notice…

As a child, my sisters and I would get a Barbie every Christmas. Each of us always had one favorite Barbie so that new dolls would get stripped of their valuable clothing. They would then be practiced upon for new hair cut ideas, which never panned out well. One day I happened to be looking for something in my father’s basement and opened a drawer that revealed at least a dozen and a half naked Barbies with crew cuts. It was very disturbing…

My sisters and I would have Barbie marathon weekends, beginning Saturday morning and ending Sunday night when were sent to bed. As a result of our over exposure to the media at an early age, my Barbie and Ken had unusual problems. Barbie got pregnant out of wedlock and was unsure what to do. Ken feigned support, but was secretly hoping Barbie decided to get an abortion because he was not ready to be a father.
