This year there was something compellingly challenging to me about the Baby Doll. The portrayal of the vulnerable woman walking around with a swaddled infant seemed more concerning than ever. As happens with all of my Performances, the answer caught me unexpectedly.

Also the mother herself is “ the baby” as well! Unprotected, unsupported. Yet again, it was clear that I had to send this message.
