Las topsy turvy son un tipo de muñecas múltiples. Originadas muy probablemente durante la época de la esclavitud en Norteamérica hoy en día nos permiten representar aspectos contrapuestos o complementarios de un mismo personaje, historia o situación ¿Las conocías?

Anya Paintsil - Mair at Cylch Meithrin

The other works I titled in Welsh because they were heavily based on memory. For example, Mam, Mair a fi (2020), translates to 'Mum, Mair and me', as well as Mair at Cylch Meithrin which translates into 'Mair at nursery circle'. The figure is my sister crying at nursery school holding her toy duck, 'Floppy'.
J'ai intitulé les autres œuvres en gallois car elles étaient fortement basées sur la mémoire. Par exemple, Mam, Mair a fi (2020) se traduit par "Maman, Mair et moi", ainsi que Mair at Cylch Meithrin qui se traduit par "Mair à l'école maternelle". La figure représente ma sœur qui pleure à l'école maternelle en tenant son canard en peluche, " Floppy ".
