Meet Me at Midnight
Meet me at Midnight embodies the sounds of crashing waves, songs of the siren, the sound of the tide in a conch shell. The silver mermaid tumbles down your wall, she is clasping hold of a golden shell, which comes off a hook and can be placed on the body. The little shell is a reminder of listening, of distant worlds, and of beautiful secrets. Much like the concept of love, mermaids transcended continents, and appeared in mythology all over the globe. They are mysterious creatures, who exist in the realm of The Other; they hold abject beauty, encompassing maritime dangers of loss of control and indulgence. Being used as a wall ornament, the piece takes on a function of shrine, and a protective amulet, and the golden shell acts as a portable extension, worn out into the world.
