Set in Barcelona, the mermaid embodies the spirit of the Mediterranean as both guardian and muse. The trencadÌs technique, popularized by GaudÌ, adds a dynamic blend of color and form, symbolizing the fragmented yet harmonious nature of the sea. In her hand, the mermaid holds a heart, representing the eternal heartbeat of the city of Barcelona as a major center of the Mediterranean.
