one day i dreamt of this huge gray room
i walked inside and in the middle 
of that room i saw i small crystal  lake
went closer and saw this form of a woman naked 
lying on the middle 
gray hair, blue lips
no other features
surrounded by a school of jellyfishes 
intertwined 
connected
then i woke up..

i chose the jellyfish as my inspiration because of all the interesting facts about

them that i can relate to 

usually misunderstood as beautiful but mindless creatures

 they don't have blood , a brain and a heart

but yet they have survived for almost half a billion years 

seemingly harmless but a few of its species are considered to be one of the deadliest creatures on earth

simple but complex 

mysterious beautiful alien like creatures of the sea

The body of my gown is an abstract representation of the sea and corals 

where the jellies come from

the beads embedded on the corals

represent polyps or jelly seedlings 

seedling that bloom in phases of the moon, or different climate changes depending on the species
