Prague Vodyanoy
Mixed media. Paperclay, papier-mâché mass.
40 cm
This story, which cannot be, took place in Prague. One drunken peasant was returning home in the evening and drowned in the river Chertovka. And turned into a Vodyanoy. Since then, he wanders the streets of Prague, goes to beer bars, and those who treat him with beer can be presented with fresh river fish. I think that Vodyanoy in his walks around the city may well be accompanied by a muskrat, which, as it turned out, can also be found in Prague near the Charles Bridge.
