Local News
I've been a bit lax in keeping you guys updated, partly because I've been (and am) inundated with custom work and partly because I really only write - even something as simple as an update - when I'm inspired.
With that, in case you missed the tweets, here are links to two recent Long Island write-ups from the past month or so. Although it may not seem like a big deal from the outside, it is a big deal to us. MerCurios has been included in numerous International Fashion Magazines and Blogs, local press it seems, is not as easy come by.
First, MerCurios was on page 24 of the Memorial Day Weekend issue of The Independent. "Just A Little Goth" is the title of the article. It was so much fun being interviewed by the editor. The conversation flowed like I was catching up with an old friend. You can read the story here, just be sure to click to page 24.
Shortly there after, MerCurios was featured in Clothes Line - a Fashion Blog off shoot of Long Island Press Newspaper. This story has a completely different vibe. Feel free to check it out here.
From the studio, through the stories.
This space is an open journal of sorts—where stories, symbols, and small moments gather. Some entries trace the creative process, others reflect on inspiration found in nature, history, or daily life. All are woven with the same intent: to offer a glimpse behind the relics and the meanings they carry.
