WHISPER
The Mirror's Whisper is the voice behind the creation.

This is what DreamFisher - (The Mermaid Angler) has to say:

"Deep inside you, between what you remember and what you were trained to forget, there is a hole in the ice. And over it he waits. The Dreamfisher.

His back is bent from years of watching hope drown. Snow crusts his coat, because the kingdom of intellect is cold and sterile and proud of it. He listens, always listening.

The moment the water trembles, the moment something stirs, he smiles.

“Oh. You dreamed again.”

What was it this time? To create? To leave? To feel alive in your own body? To be free? To be more than this?

His mouth curls, not in anger, in amusement.

Slowly, with ritual precision, he prepares the bait. Not knives. Not chains. Brains. Reason. Logic. Facts. The most delicious poison you know.

“Oh, you want to be an artist,” he whispers. “Everyone knows artists are obsolete now. AI replaced them. You are already late.”

“Oh, you want to travel. How cute. With what money?”
You want your own life. Your own work. Your own voice.

Be serious.

People like you do not get that.

And you, sweet child, already tired, already bruised, already taught to survive instead of live, you bite.

Because reason feels safe. Because excuses feel warm. Because victimhood lets you rest without choosing.

Because if you admit that someone with your same fear, your same pain, your same conditions stood up and chose anyway, then the weight falls on you. And that is terrifying.

So you let him speak. About governments. About parents. About systems. About fate. About how powerless you are. And you nod, because it hurts less than responsibility.

The hook sinks in. And he pulls.

Your hair breaks the surface first, red like a warning, your skin pale like something that never got to bloom.

You follow words instead of the ache in your chest. You follow definitions instead of the pull."

DETAILS
Your Truth Reflected Back

Dreamfisher (The Mermaid Angler) speaks in ice and water. It reveals the moment you were taught to trade wonder for safety, when you learned to freeze what you loved in order to be allowed to survive. Yet in that brutal clarity lives a gift: the permission to return to the deep and reclaim what was taken. Step back into the waters of becoming and release the hook of reason from your heart. Untethered from fear, you awaken to the dream that never died.

What’s included:
+ Acrylic Mirror Artwork (top-grade, high-gloss, UV-protected)
+ Overall size: 20 × 20 in (50 × 50 cm) — ready to hang

+ Certified Manuscript — the Whisper behind the work, hand-signed & numbered
+ Sanctuary Access Key — Spot Uv card with a scannable digital key
+ Conservator’s White Gloves — lint-free, museum-quality cotton

This is not a mirror for decoration. It is a mirror for remembering— a still moment that reflects who you are, and who you are becoming.

TESTIMONIALS
“I didn’t see a mermaid at first. I saw myself—half submerged, half pretending I was fine where I was. The man fishing wasn’t cruel. That’s what scared me. He looked patient. Familiar. Like the voice I use when I explain to myself why I shouldn’t want more. After sitting with this image, I realized how often I’ve let logic talk me out of longing. That night I wrote again for the first time in six years. Not for money. Not for anyone. Just to remember what it feels like to pull something living out of the dark.”

— LUCAS

“This piece made me furious. Then ashamed. Then quiet. I recognized the Dreamfisher immediately—he sounds exactly like my mother, like my professors, like the version of myself that learned to survive by shrinking. I’ve always been ‘reasonable.’ Practical. Applauded for it. But looking at her body on the ice, pale and beautiful and wrong where it was placed, I understood what it had cost me. I quit a job two weeks later. Everyone said I was reckless. I felt colder—but more honest—than I ever have.”

— ISABEL

“I’m an engineer. I trust systems. Proof. Outcomes. I’ve built my life on measurable things. This image dismantled me. I couldn’t explain why it stayed with me, why the red hair felt like an accusation. Eventually I understood: I’ve been letting the Dreamfisher speak for me. I call it realism. He calls it bait. I sent this artwork to my younger brother with one line: ‘Please don’t listen to the voice that taught me to be small.’ He replied, ‘Too late. But I’m learning.’ For the first time, I believe him.”

— MATEO
BLOOMING
You know him because he has been speaking in your voice

You know him because he has been speaking in your voice

Not loudly. Not cruelly. Patiently. Every time you felt the pull toward something more and immediately explained why it was unrealistic. Every time you reached for a life and corrected yourself back into place. This mirror does not introduce the Dreamfisher. It shows you where you already agreed with him.
He never needed force. You trusted reason more
He never needed force. You trusted reason more

He never needed force. You trusted reason more

He did not offer violence. He offered explanations. Logic polished until it felt like care. Facts arranged so gently they passed as wisdom. This is how the hook enters. Not through fear. Through relief.
You are here because pretending not to know has become impossible

You are here because pretending not to know has become impossible

This piece does not appear at the beginning. It appears after you have already dreamed. After you have already named what you want. After you have already felt the shame of calling it impossible. The Dreamfisher waits for this moment. When delay starts to feel heavier than risk.
This is what survives when you choose safety over truth

This is what survives when you choose safety over truth

Not a failure. Something worse. A life that almost happened. Skin pale from never meeting the sun. Hair breaking the surface like a warning that came too late. This is not punishment. This is the shape of potential left unattended.
Owning this mirror means he no longer speaks alone

Owning this mirror means he no longer speaks alone

Dreamfisher does not free you. It refuses to lie to you. It stands in your space and waits for the moment you start explaining yourself again. It asks nothing. It forgives nothing. And somehow that is where the strength comes from. Because every day you live with it, the voice gets clearer. And it is no longer his
Not Decoration. Remembrance

Not Decoration. Remembrance

An artwork not made to decorate, but to awaken. A mirror that reflects not your image, but the place where your dreams were taught to freeze, the waters you stepped out of to survive, and the wonder you were told to drown. Each glance becomes a quiet rebellion against the cage of reason, a vow to return to the current of your own becoming, and to live from the depths instead of the fear.

A precision-cut external archival mat and hand-finished hardwood frame surround a pane of Opticrylic® — a crystal-clear, UV-shielded medium that preserves depth, detail, and color with remarkable permanence. Each glance will meet the same truth decades from now as it does today.

A message from Benjamin Viulet

You are not acquiring just an artwork.

You are answering a call.

Inside each of us lives a sea we were taught to abandon.
One more sensible choice.
One more quiet compromise.
One more reason not to try.
The waters grew still.
The Dreamfisher learned your name.

This Mirror was made to break the ice
and return you to motion.

When you stand before it, it will not ask who you are.
It will ask something far more dangerous.
What part of you did you let freeze so you could feel safe?
It will remind you that the dream was never lost.
Only submerged.
And that the moment you move again, the water answers.

Some days the hook will sound like care.
Some days safety will feel like truth.
Swim anyway.
Release the line.
Enter the deep.
Trust the current.

When it reaches your home, read the Whisper,
place your hand on the Mirror,
and make your vow.
May this piece mark the season
when the ice breaks
and the life you were meant to live
begins to move.

I see you. I know you. I love you.

Benjamin Viulet

WHY IT’S CALLED A “MIRROR”
This work is not meant to decorate your walls; it’s meant to uncover the distance you learned to call love. The Winter Between Us (A Plea to Turn) is a daily reminder that honesty is warmer than performance. It reflects not your face but the space between two hearts still following old scripts: One proving love through sacrifice, the other waiting to be asked to care. Every glance invites you to turn, to share the coat, to build a climate where truth replaces formality and both can finally be warm.
