Hey Baby!
Welcome to a world of knee socks, bunches, lollypops, bubble gum and models adopting the childlike expressions of six year old girls. A daring exploration into the paradox of living in a society that continues to infantilise women. Paedophilia is not ok yet fetishised images of women as pre-pubescent girls are. In this outlandish performance a grown woman attempts to be your baby to discover if innocence really is as sexy as we’re told it is.
