“Glædelig lille havfrue/The happy little mermaid”. Oil on canvas – 80×80 cm København 2014. By Elena Pecci
Through the analysis of the story of the little mermaid (and all those who remain stuck in an emotion and in their resistances) I want to give new life, hope and freedom to a woman with a broken heart. Just as a butterfly leaving the integument of the chrysalis, the little mermaid remained anchored for years on his rock, has now cured and transformed the wounds of her heart and finally she is ready to change her horizon and take the leap. The little mermaid emerges from the sea foam in contemplation of what surrounds her, greets the port of Nyhavn and free and serene, regains her soul.
This painting will be presented in my next exhibition: Frederiksberg Hospital 2November 2014
