Hermes.com > The Story Behind

The midday sun on the coast. A vision of Greece and magical antiquity. The dazzling colors, curves, and diagonal lines express joyful sensations. Greek mythology tells us the story of Amphitrite who was walking on the Island of Naxos with her sisters. Poseidon was captivated by her dancing, but she fled his advances and took refuge with Atlas the giant. It was the dolphin, Delphinus who finally succeeded in persuading her to become queen of the seas. In a composition featuring abstract geometric shapes on the edge of reality, Julie Abadie recounts her dream.
