The Death of Sappho earrings, present on top side some detail of the impressive oil painting by Miguel Carbonell Selva. The earrings are completely handmade without any industrial process, the details we choose from the painting are the most emblematic. These lightweight earrings represent a story of Greek mythological sapphic art. "Sappho was a prolific poet, Sappho's poetry is still considered extraordinary and her works continue to influence other writers. Beyond her poetry, she is well known as a symbol of love and desire between women, with the English words sapphic and lesbian being derived from her own name and the name of her home island respectively". The back side of the earrings are hand paint with black colour. they are not afraid of humidity or a few drops of rain, but being made of wood it is advisable not to wear them when taking a shower or bath in the sea or in the pool. Furthermore, to preserve the brilliance of the hook, we recommend storing them in a container after use.

Fixated on a mythological depiction of nature, Japanese artist Ishibashi Yui sculpts feral children that appear to belong to another realm of reality. Pallid, hairless human bodies become fused with roots and vines, brought to life through a mixture of wood, resin, clay, wire and paint. Oftentimes, the figures appear imprisoned by the flora. In Then, It Returns Slowly, a pregnant woman's face erupts with flesh-colored growths that form a tree trunk.

These sculptures personify nature as a force that reclaims its power from its human occupants. Take a look at some of Yui's sculptures after the jump.
