Found Object Clown Automaton
I created this piece with a Mrs. Claus doll as my base. I then mounted it on a carousal and used an old lampshade to mimic a circus tent. The face was then cut off and an old alarm clock placed inside. I then painted the removed face to look like a clown. I then sewed the costume and added the finishing touches. Once plugged in the doll removes and replaces her face to expose her clockwork inside.
