The Siren

The Siren, 2025
Oil, Oil Pastel, Acrylic on Canvas
25x50cm
 
The Siren has long been painted as a danger to men, her melody blamed for their downfall. Yet her myth was never about destruction. It was about longing, isolation, and the need to be heard. She is a symbol of grief mistaken for threat, of voices silenced before they are understood.
 
Les Divines
Les Divines is a collection of feminine beings drawn from myths and folktales around the world. Some are seen as protectors, others as temptresses or monsters. Each one, a hybrid part  human part myth.
 
Rather than labeling them as good or evil, Les Divines looks at how they were shaped by their own stories and how their stories  went about being told. Their myths, both tender and tragic, offer reflections of our own. In their joys, losses, and transformations, we find pieces of what it means to be seen, misunderstood, loved, feared, and to endure. This series returns to these beings with openness, not judgment.
