Ok so i am late by like a month, i have been busy and STILL didn't finish my native jewish miku but fuck it here's indigenous, native israeli miku with a little of my touch and a small analysis:

The clothes:

The dress is double layered and based on biblical description i saw of the clothes ancient jews wore i added yellow hoops at the end of the dress to represent the color of our oppression- yellow belts under the muslim rule and yellow stars in the holocaust

The embroidery:

The Rikma(embroidery) is a personal project i am working on for the past 3 months. The embroidery that WAS practiced on the land eventually was allowed only to muslims and arabs, jews in ottoman syria/palestine were so oppressed and poor they didn't have access to threads and around 1800's some rabbis discoraged jews being involved in arab activity, not only that the jews has completely disconnected themselves from most of the arab culture after the spread of zionism to the land as a form of building their own identity. And if there were jews involved in embroidery it is unknown bc all the photos i see are labeled as "palestinian woman" with no explanation if it is a christian, muslim or jewish.

My project consists of making patterns and motifs based on jewish history, symbols, traditions, land etc and i try to make it original, unique and as diverse from the tatreez as possible to avoid conflict. If any of you want i can explain in a different analysis on what each pattern represents.

The jewelry:

I genuinely suck at drawing gold and jewelry and tried my best to adorn her with as much jewelry as i can. The side piece(that can barely be seen) is also a pattern i came up with, i call it "amulet"

(ps. I forgot to make her a normal necklace, wanted to make it with a hamsa)

Henna:

Henna is still practiced by jews, mainly sefardic and mizrahi jews + ashkenazi jews who grow up and participate in mizrahi culture. The henna on the hands is based on patterns i saw some jewish artists made (on google unfortunately it didn't have names) which has the star of david on it and on the legs i made a mix of bukharan and yemeni jewish henna.

So here it is. A native, indigenous jewish/judean/israeli(te) miku. I tried my best✨

tell the neighbors i'm not sorry if i'm breaking walls down, building your girl's second story, tearing all your floors out

I'll always find it interesting that Rikki is the one that assimilates her powers the fastest, and it probably has to do with her own 'outsider' status in town.

Think about it. Becoming a mermaid yanks you out of "normal society" and it even yanks you out of being just a normal human, that's a lot to process for Emma and Cleo who were average teenage girls. But Rikki has always been an outsider of sorts, marching to the beat of her own drum.

What's being a mermaid going to do but add more to the feeling of being an 'other'? She's at home with it, she's okay with it, but I think she's more okay with it 'cause she has people who know exactly the feeling, a sisterhood.

A sisterhood with two people who she would NEVER have bonded with ever.

#And listen #I'm not gonna say that Rikki is bisexual but i will 'cause think about it #Her attitude and aesthetics are already very alt like she's used to doing her own thing #do you think that comes from her being bisexual and rebellious? i think yes probably who knows #This probably plays into the thing like she feels better knowing that she's outside of the norm with two girls who once WERE #There must be a comfort in that #I also think Emma becoming an “outsider” makes her more open to the idea of being Rikki's girlfriend there i go making it a rikma thing #In a way too i guess becoming a mermaid and bonding with peopel outside her circle made Rikki grow #Like she came to understand that there really is no defined line between “us and them” and that we're all more alike than we think #Lines in society are blurred and they always have but when you're a teen y'don't get it #Zane and Rikki is an example yeah but think of Rikki's friends accepting her for who she is #I can't say it made her grow into “integrating” either that seems weird #but I will say that she learned to look at others more empathetically #Funny how becoming a mermaid made all of 'em more human #And made Rikki and Emma become gayer than they were already #rikki chadwick #h20 just add water #h2o just add water #h2o: just add water #h2o #emma gilbert #rikma #rikma in the tags for those who need a jumpscare alert owo
