Collectors will say "wow!", Parents of preschool children will say "fairy!" Julien Martinez … Born in Bordeaux, this Frenchman is considered one of the most talented and bizarre puppeteer artists of our time. And the point is not even that his works are not intended for play and childish gripping. Martinez dolls are more like characters in horror films than those cute, positive, pink dolls that we are used to seeing. But the car does not draw its inspiration from creepy horror films at all: modern fairy tales, cartoons and fiction inspire him to create such characters.

Aged children, beaten by the fate of women, elderly wrinkled ladies with swollen eyelids, tear-stained eyes and distorted faces: Julien Martinez's characters do not dispose to tenderness and admiration. Rather, on the contrary, those who have seen these dolls "live" at least once try not to do this anymore. What can you do, not everyone can understand the artist and accept his worldview. Therefore, Martinez does not lose heart, but continues to tinker with his grandmothers and women battered by life, wrecking the applause of collectors and bumping into a misunderstanding of the townsfolk.
