Portraits of Sirens Written by a Woman by Alex Radota

Sirens in mythology were portrayed as devious and dangerous creatures imagined as half-fish and half-women. These mythical beings were known for luring sailors to their death on rocky coasts through their enchanting singing.

With the aim of challenging the traditional portrayal of sirens, “Portraits of Sirens Written by a Woman” seeks to represent these mythical creatures as symbols of feminine strength and empowerment. The project aims to show a unique perspective on femininity, feminine energy, and its fluidity from the female viewpoint.
