Ondine
Ondine is a real estate agent who’s unaware she is mildly famous in the office for trucking out mangled life mantras like, “dress for success, like there’s no tomorrow,” or “seldom say never,” and “there’s no ME in team.” The latter has always amused her colleagues, because she’s clearly misunderstood the cliché, and she’s anything but a team player. Today, she’s dressed to pounce on a big sale, while breezily and confidently reciting the affirmation “it is better to have laughed and lost than to have never laughed at all.”
Ondine is also an articulated ceramic wall puppet and she is modelled by hand in stoneware clay, twice fired, decorated with ceramic glazes, and finished with a cold glaze. She is approximately 32 cm long, and can hang on the wall by nail, hook or tack.
