She Sells Sea Shells
This print layers the image of a mermaid over the rhyme “She Sells Sea Shells.” The well-known Sea Shells tongue twister was inspired by Mary Anning, a pioneering fossil hunter. By contrasting the mythical siren with a real-life heroine, ‘She Sells Sea Shells’ critiques society’s focus on beauty and mystery over courage and intellect in women. This artwork is both a celebration and a commentary on what we value in female icons, blending folklore with historical legacy.
