Thalassophile
Thalassophile: (n) a lover of the sea, someone who loves the sea, ocean
This word is pretty explanatory for why I chose it. As we all know mermaids do live in the ocean which is why this word ties so well with this piece of art. I didn't give her a face because it represents the bias women have against them that holds them back from or prevents them from being heard compared to men. She does't have any arms because this represents the lack of support some women have in certain areas of work compared to others and how gender bias is usually unconscious which makes it hard to be supported and noticed. The materials I used for this piece of art was clay and slip like some I previously made.
