At first, an apparition, like in a dream; the vision of an enticing Brazilian island, allowing all sorts of fantasies. Its curves conjure the silhouette of a whale spouting from a fairy tale, or that of a strange hourglass unconcerned with the passage of time. She is an imaginary land released from a genie's lamp like a wish. Her name, Ilha do Mel, or "Honey Island", immerses the soul in delicious dreams.
