I've recently come to love an artist who has used Paris Hilton as a subject. I'm not sure how you were relating her to the Votive Figures but you may find the sculpture interesting :) The Artist's name is Daniel Edwards. His clay model of Paris shows her abdominal insides and he is trying to portray the dangers of underage drinking to teenagers.
