Glitter, spikes and everything nice?

OCTOBER 15, 2024 → WORDS SANA OMEROVIĆ

Little is known about the origins of these perfect, not so little creatures. Each of them so versatile, so different, so foreign. Perhaps that is how they ended up in the same herd. Nonetheless they are here, standing tall and united. Here, where the sea whispers to the woods, these creatures have found their sanctuary to create a new kind of story, one that blurs the lines between fashion, art and the untamed. Together, they form a new mythology, not of gods and goddesses, but rather of something more raw. Something too wild to tame, too beautiful to ignore.

The spikes jutting from Mathildes skin are invitations daring you to look closer and understand the danger and allure intertwined in her being. Rumours say that Mathilde was born on the dark side of planet Caesio, a place caught in eternal twilight. Mathilde was marked by the planet itself, her skin absorbing the energy circulations of Caesio, manifesting in the spikes that now cover her face. Planet Earth became her home when she was a soldier who was sent from Caesio to examine the foreigners.

Frank represents a symphony of contrasts, lace and pearls. Some say that he is a being who travels between dimensions to collect fragments of forgotten beauty. Each voyage he takes leaves a mark on his appearance as a token. There is something playful about Franks presence in a way that it disrupts the sophisticated elegance of his white lace. He wears beauty as a weapon rather than a shield, because he has nothing to hide... hence the nipples. The pearls stay intact as a reminder of beauty’s fragility and endurance.

Aliza stands at the heart of it all. Dressed in a crochet dress of pink and white that clings to her like the petals of a flower. A true earthling. Her dress, her pink boots and her quiet nature might deceive you, but do not be fooled because beneath all the softness and warmth, Alizas true power lies in her ability to see what others can’t. While Franks chaos and Mathildes edge might seem like overwhelming and intimidating forces, Aliza simply flows like the breeze.

Sana didn’t arrive with a spectacle, she just appeared one day while the other were already gathered in the herd. Some say that she had always been there, lurking from the shadows and waiting for the right moment to reveal herself. Others believe she escaped from the evil puppet master that wanted to keep her In a box for ever. Sana knew she wanted more than that. All her miserable life she listened to endless tales about the outside world and what it has to offer. So one day, she decides to get out and run as fast as she could. This was the very first time her feet had touched the grass.

As the sun begins to set, the time is running low and these four beings are getting ready to embark on the next chapter of their journey. Their path winds toward the city, where the concrete jungle awaits and where they will continue to craft their narrative.
