Description
Named after the toy a mall Santa suggested when he heard a 5-year old boy ask for a Barbie, "Hot Wheels" is based on the shame boys with feminine interests feel when they are socialized to feel as such. A baby blue coffin is the final resting place for a collection of disfigured dolls, a mournful symbol of burying one's feelings to conform.
