This video installation develops the cultural themes of the feminine, water, transformation or the mythical ‘shapeshifting’ capabilities of creatures like the ‘sirens’ and traditions of their danger to men; how this has impacted on romantic perceptions of stereotypes and the personal experience of femininity. Glass and salt are used as symbols for the seductive, fragile, dangerous, and ultimately life – giving fluidity of water.
