Doll Face

In this visually stunning piece, a robot with a woman’s face uses its dead skin as a canvas to mimic the images that it sees on TV. With no emotion to project self-worth, the doll-faced creature finds that beauty is merely a façade that is subjective and unattainable.

Doll Face follows a machine’s struggle to construct its own identity. The machine with a doll face mimics images presented on a television screen and ultimately self-destructs from its inability to adopt a satisfactory visage. Created in its entirety by Andy Huang, Doll Face presents a visual account of desires misplaced and identities fractured by our technological extension into the future.

I think this film also has a fantasy theme to it. In other words, beauty is a fantastical illusion, and the robot self-destructs because it believes beauty is reality because it looks so real. The robot self-destructs chasing a fantasy that it thinks is reality. (You can never capture a fantasy).
