The image of mermaids in world painting
Mermaids - mysterious mystical creatures, which not once inspired poets and writers. At the same time, the Slavic mermaid is very different from Western representations. This is an unacquainted soul, a beautiful drowned woman, as in the work of Gogol.
The mermaid is usually depicted as a naked girl with a fish tail; however, she may have a pair of legs and a pair of tails, which, in turn, can be not only fish, but also dolphin or snake. She sings marvelous songs, and often also plays the harp.

Kristen Liu-Wong is modern naivety, it's black humor and a woman's essence that is not so sweet at all. A very popular artist today.
In bubble gum-colored and mint-tinged scenes, Kristen promotes the idea that femininity doesn't always mean polished and soft; it can be rough and sharp. Well, one would think that's not femininity then. But Liu-Wong doesn't see it that way.

As my work is based on the Art Nouveau style and the seductive drawings of Egon Schiele, it is not surprising that my constant subject matter is women. Using mainly graphite pencils to create bold clean lines, it is important for me to convey fearlessness in portraying sexuality, intimacy and femininity!

Disappearing sculptures
Korean artist Ho Yoon Shin creates amazing paper sculptures that, when you look at them from a certain angle, you not only won't realize what they are, but you won't even notice them.
