Elephant Parade – A Grande Sereia 10cm

Elephant Parade – A Grande Sereia 10cm

Artist: Thuany Kohlbach
Parade: Florianópolis 2015

In a seaside setting, with beautiful beaches and diverse beauties, lies a mystical creature with long, colourful hair: The Great Mermaid. Thinking of the current search for the ideal female body and inspired by the refusal of aesthetic standards, I combined the figure of the elephant with the imagery of the mermaid, breaking the idea of what beauty is related to size. The character Ariel, of The Little Mermaid, was the initial inspiration.

An original Elephant Parade replica is something really special to give and to own. Each elephant is hand-painted by talented artists, part of an exclusive limited edition series and each one sold donates to charities in aid of elephant conservation.

The Elephant is known for its wisdom, strength and as a symbol of good fortune. In the art of Feng Shui it brings energies of beauty, silent power, kindness, fertility & majesty to your home or office. To welcome such positivity into your space place your elephant replica facing inward, preferably just inside the front door. Elephant Parade is a social enterprise and runs the world’s largest art exhibition of decorated elephant statues to raise awareness and funds for elephant conservation as, without our help, experts predict the endangered Asian Elephant could become extinct within the next 30 years. Be part of it, and help save the elephants with Elephant Parade.

Each elephant comes packaged in a smart black gift box, with a hologram of authenticity and a certificate listing the artist, series, production number, year and parade city.
