Mechanical ice maiden

The silver dress dummy’s screws are loose. This makes for interesting sound and motion as she rotates before a large sheet of white-primed paper. The ice maiden squeaks as she cracks. Digital photos take her for a spin at the highest resolution, and afterwards she appears drawn on the paper.

Moving how she can, within the limits of a circle, she turns clockwise like the circumpolar currents, and as Antarctica seen turning from space. Her unexpected gestures make her almost human.
