Trolley Dolly - Series No.2: 19E2255v14, in this emotionally layered composition, a knitted doll with striped clothing and playful pigtails looms across a darkened brick wall, her oversized presence at once childlike and solemn. Her gaze, wide and fixed, looks out toward a red handled shopping trolley parked empty at the kerb. A rustic timber door, glowing with traces of fruit and shadowy domestic fragments, anchors the composition, suggesting lives lived just out of sight.

Part of the Trolley Dolly series by Raymond Mather, this work explores the delicate balance between innocence and abandonment, between the comforting and the discarded. The doll stands as both sentinel and symbol, representing the overlooked stories of women and children impacted by homelessness. The visual tension and saturated palette bring emotional gravity to an otherwise everyday urban setting.

Printed on museum-grade archival cotton rag paper using archival pigment inks. Each work is individually signed and accompanied by a Certificate of Authenticity.
