This bag is one of the artist's personal favorites and draws inspiration from the haunting lyrics "That's why she sleeps with one eye open" from the Florence + The Machine song "Girl With One Eye". The artwork merges beauty and unease, embodying the song's dark, confrontational energy. The centerpiece's serene face fragmented by it's deadly counterpart, with countless eyes peeking out from unexpected places – the color palette contrasts soft, dreamy, pastels with jarring streaks of crimson and shadowy black, reflecting the duality of vulnerability and menace. The floral frame of the composition, disrupted by the unsettling gaze of concealed eyes captures the tension between trust and fear, and beauty and discomfort. A dark, yet striking exploration of diligence, fragility, and the hidden complexities of the human psyche. This very large black patent leather bag has four individual compartments, the center one being zippered, an outer zippered compartment and an additional inside zipper pocket on the back wall of the bag. It features tons of space! This is an unbranded piece and finding specifics on it's time period have proved to be difficult. It is believed to be circa 1990s
