Bastien
Artist Penelope O’Gara
Vintage lace, chiffon & jewellery; silk, wire & resin
46cm H x 17cm W
Bastien may usually be just a fluttery faerie filled with goodwill & boundless charm. But when the moon is visible, she becomes something quite, quite other - a ravenous devourer of anything green (including discarded jackets, or even boiled cabbage) & singer of raucous sea shanties (albeit in an astonishingly beautiful voice). It will not surprise you to learn that these unfortunate afflictions are the result of an enchantment cast by the evil faerie excluded from her 210th birthday festivities.
