REVISITING OLD HAUNTS found myself back in St Albans this week. This is where it all began for @OGOMProject. The memento mori skull that became our logo is still clearly visible in the abbey!

STEAMPUNK FAIRIES
Made from clock-parts these tiny sculptures act as memento mori, reminding us of the shortness of life & the fairy's connection to the butterfly through its wings. They creatively present an alternative future, imagined from a Victorian perspective.

Javier Prado Coronel@JaviertPrado
Este libro tiene casi 150 años. Y es el primero en español dedicado íntegramente a duendes, hadas, brujas y demás seres de los mitos europeos. Realmente son traducciones de diversos artículos extranjeros, y las ilustraciones son una MARAVILLA (lástima que no se acredita al autor)

THE DUSKY BLUEBELLS
In and out the dusky bluebells
I am your master
Bluebell woods are hazardous and full of fairy woven spells. You may be pixy-led or may never come out again. There is something sinister in the words of this Scottish singing game which suggests never venturing into a wood to pick bluebells. #GothicSpring
