About the song
“There’s always a group of people in society that doesn’t fit in and somehow we always have a need to emphasize that they do not fit in by singling them out, cornering them in all sorts of ways – think of viral videos, fights on the streets et cetera”, Sharon den Adel says.

ED selected excerpts from a Sacred Familiar article:
Today would have been Vali Myers’ 83rd birthday. I remember that Vali once told me she was born with a head of thick red hair and came out howling – she said it set the tone for the rest of her life. Vali was one of the most important people in my life. Knowing her, just spending time being in her wild presence, changed me forever and I am still, only now, understanding the pearls of wisdom that she gifted me so long ago.
I was honoured to be asked to write the foreword for Night Flower – The Life and Art of Vali Myers. I hope it inspires you today to remember Vali and your own wild spirit. And I hope it encourages you to seek out her incredible art and this wonderful book. Viva Vali.
The ancient Celts believed that we had two selves one that lived in this world and at the same time, one in the Otherworld. This mysterious ‘other’ is usually separate from our knowing but in Vali it co-existed with ease. The Australian Aboriginals call the Otherworld the Dreamtime and Vali used this word often and with love as if it were the real world, a place where creations are born, ancestors reside and the future was already known. Vali was a walker between the worlds. She even called her paintings ‘spirit drawings’ as if pulled from the ether. She drew only for herself with no intention of selling for years, so what you are holding in Night Flower is a book of paintings and writings created by her spirit for her spirit – to romance the other. By opening this book you are crossing a once secret threshold.
“The witch of Positano” is a 1965 film by Sheldon & Diane Rochlin (now named Flame Schon) and the first about Vali Myers’ life that now seems impossible to find [1]. I thought that that title was appropiate to define a woman like Vali Myers, with her flaming red hair and all those intricate tattoos, even on her face, her eyes made up with eye shadow, surrounded by a pack of dogs. Like a shaman she used to wear a lot of jewels, talismans, necklaces and rings and like a magician she charmed, with her hypnotic glance and trasgressive aura. Her gypsy style of dress, that magnificent hotchpotch, her leggings made of clerical brocade, she anticipated the hippy movement by at least a decade.
With a fire red mane, savage rather than just wild; with casual and sumptuous layers of second-hand clothes, which she was the first to seek out among the stalls of Resina at Ercolano and wore them like a sovereign “she was an Amazon” Gianni Menichetti said, “an indomitable creature, a stoic and spartan nomad soul. A primeval, telluric, pagan spirit.”
