Artwork title : Early
Early, a 76x76cm oil on canvas, is about women's friendship and a meditation on a slavic folk song about a woman calling for mermaids. Here's a translation of the song:
Early, oh so early
I'll go up the mountain, up the mountain early,
Oh so early
By the bubbling spring, the bubbling spring early,
Oh so early
By the sun-kissed stone, the sun-kissed stone early,
Oh so early
Bursting into white blossoms, white blossoms early,
Oh so early
Bowing to the dawn, bowing to the dawn early,
Oh so early.
Early, oh so early
I'll undo my plaits, undo my plaits early,
Oh so early
To let the songs ring, let the songs ring early,
Oh so early
To let the mermaids hear, let the mermaids hear early,
Oh so early.
