A message to my spouse, which i have screenshotted: The girl in the box is such an important mpdern trope in a post-feminism world. Being born as consumable art, becoming consumable art, twisting yourself into it: femininity as an expression is that insofar as it is observed by others. The ability to express this new-in-box feminine projects not only beauty standards but also the internal tug-of-war we experience as the thing in the box and its possessor

An anime figure of a cute girl in cyberpunk clothing neatly folded into a clear box. The figure is herself folded at the waist & knees as if to be transported - but this is the intention of the sculpture of the Girl in the Box.
