"Mouse" a Forest Spirit
This is an handmade mixed media artwork inspired by folk art and fairytales.
When I was little, I remember reading a book with Chimeras and being fascinated with these creatures ever since. I do not remember the plot nor the title of the book but the mention of the word "Chimères" only is enough send my imagination running wild.
This little creature I have made has decided that her name was Mouse. She is a little delicate and yet strong willed Spirit, a Fae of the Forest.
She is made from textiles, wires and air drying clay.
In her arm, she carries a yellow flower (a dried flower stem painted with acrylic). Her eye is a black glass eye.
She is signed and is ready to be displayed on your walls thanks to a loop sewn at the back of her head.
She cannot stand nor sit on her own.
Please display away from direct sunlight and any source of water.
This is not a toy.
Measurements
It measures approximately 19cm.
As a doll maker inspired by folk art dolls, I want to say that the fabric fraying, the threads still showing or the way things are attached to each other are all voluntary processes. This is the way I find that my creations are beautiful. This how I feel they are unique and original. It shows their frailties, flaws and their strength altogether.
I am working with upcycled materials mostly.
