Cut OUT/s and Paper Toys

Cut OUT/s and Paper Toy Series

by Rolando Chang Barrero

These paintings are created explore our relationship between our childhood toys and our gender. In this work I look at toys and color assignations of my childhood…

the feminine vs, the masculine (aka boy's toys and girl's toys)...

Color's in the background and of the toys themselves are switched around to question whether color has any impact on the assignation of gender to toy and toy color.
