Kattegat Ghost - Bølge

The Kattegat is not a kind sea. It is the strait between Denmark and Sweden where the North Sea meets the Baltic. It's a place of cold currents and old memories. Fishermen who worked these waters did not speak of what they saw beneath the surface. They did not need to. The sea remembers on their behalf.  

The Kattegat Ghosts carry that water in them. Each one formed in the colours of an untamed Scandinavian Sea; pale fog, dark storms and the blue-grey of a sky that hasn't seen the sun in weeks. They arrived without warning. They may not stay.

Bølge does not crash. She does not thunder against rocks or drag things under. She simply rises, and recedes, and rises again. She has been doing this longer than anyone can remember. She finds it meditative. You may not.

Bølge the ghost figurine stands at just short of 9 cm.
