Johannes Vermeer, Alan Beeton, Man Ray, Edgar Degas, Pablo Picasso, Paul Cezanne and Thomas Gainsborough are a few historic artists who have used mannequins to express their artistry and creative view of their world.

Kevin uses mannequins to represent the faceless appearance of human desire, need, and social disconnect without the baggage of specific human personality.
