“When I was a kid, I believed you would become a mermaid when you went in the water to swim”.
I really loved the little mermaid as a kid growing up so I had the warped perception you became a mermaid when you entered the water ahaha. This is me learning to swim with my cousin! This piece is for a gallery show at work.
What a cool mythos!!!! All baby girls abandoned in the water are taken in by mermaids. The mermaids make them a tail out of their own scales. They even get little arm floaties until they become better swimmers. Everyone contributes to making them. It’s a society of mothers.
I LOVE IT
