LITTLE MERMAID LIVE-ACTION MODEL



Writer, actress and producer Sherri Stoner served as the body model for Ariel in Disney's The Little Mermaid, as well as Belle in Beauty and the Beast.  She provided impromptu mannerisms of Ariel's lip biting and blowing the hair from her face.  You can watch a video of Sherri modeling for Disney animators.

HISTORICALLY ACCURATE DISNEY PRINCESSES





Artist Ligne Claire created a series of historically accurate Disney Princesses.  Interesting and beautiful, Ligne Claire does research on the years, locations and fashion styles of the characters.  She purposely draws their eyes shut so as not to engage the viewer and to place them in their own world.

SNOW WHITE TRASH




Let's face it, happily ever after is never going to happen for anyone, not even for a princess. Photographer Dina Goldstein started the project Fallen Princesses when her daughters developed an interest in Disney's Fairy Tales.

"As a young girl, growing up abroad, I was not exposed to Fairy tales. These new discoveries lead to my fascination with the origins of Fairy tales. I explored the original brothers Grimm's stories and found that they have very dark and sometimes gruesome aspects, many of which were changed by Disney. I began to imagine Disney's perfect Princesses juxtaposed with real issues that were affecting women around me, such as illness, addiction and self-image issues."

The project is nearly finished with two more photographs to be shot before the exhibit premieres October 15, 2009.
