"What began as a playful exploration of the figurines themselves—putting them in thought-provoking scenes and miniature dioramas, in various states of undress—has evolved and grown in step with her blossoming career and reputation as one of New York’s hottest young artists. In a few short years, Lichtenstein has had two solo shows in Manhattan and exhibited at the county’s most prominent contemporary art fairs. Her work has been featured in publications around the world, including a prominent collector’s profile in Architectural Digest, and she’s represented in private collections in London, Madrid, Paris, Nice, Saudi Arabia, Jordan, and across the United States."

Dori’s World: 
PEEP SHOW at Vered Gallery

by Dori Cooperman, Haute Living

Lichtenstein has already established her reputation as one of New York’s hottest young artists known for her anime inspired, doll filled tableaux and the wildly imaginative worlds she creates with her “word sculptures.” Using the female body as a mechanism to explore deeper themes of power, female representation, fetishism and objectification, usually in an ironic and cheerful way, Lichtenstein’s work embodies the very paradox she is trying to explore. Her work consciously plays with the boundaries of power, commercialization, consumerism, fantasy and propriety, provoking tensions that challenge the viewer to confront his or her own gaze.
