Some of Emilie Atkinson's dolls are suspended in jars to prevent touch, showing how she doesn't generally let people close to her easily

As Josie Hinchliff's doll ages, more cracks will appear and more light from the inside will seep out

Leonie Macaulay's doll is made from solid water clear resin that encases and displays ‘my words’, as if people could see into her and find out more

Patrick Atkins' doll features parts of the house where he grew up which gives an insight into the bits and pieces of his past
