I
belong to Camille's series
I'm
born from a schulte german mohair of brown color
with a dark brown backing,
a long pile, and hand-stitched carefully (no sewing machine)
for a perfect sculpture.
I'm fully 5 ways jointed with disks and cotter pins,
I'm padded like classical bears, with exelcior mixed with wool
and mohair fibers. I have beautiful luminous green
german glass eyes with black pupil underlined
with a brown upholstery velvet.
My nose and my claws are embroidered with a dark green
synthetic silk thread. My paw pads are out of
an ecru upholstery silk fabric.
I'm wearing a perfum bottle jewel, wish of Chopard
and a big rose crocheted from cotton thread by Nadine.
I'm
12" high when I stand up and 9"1/2
sitting, I weigh almost 1 lbs.
Some impressive dark clouds flowed into the sky...
everything was grey et strong, broken off,
nothing was moving, like before a big storm.
The rain crushed on the ground, the air was black and heavy,
but my heart was warm.
A small heart was already beating from the memory
of violence of tropical rainwater,
of sky's torrents which smashed the earth.
From this violent love between the down and the up,
U-Nahan was born,
it means memory in the Shimaore language.
He lives with Carla who adopted him.
