Who is the siren today?

Can the actual materialistic world contemplate this legendary figure? We believe so! Like all things in the world and nature, mer-maids (and most mythological figures) do not disappear, they simply adapt. Open your eyes! The essence of a mermaid is not in the finned tail, in its scales but in its silence or in its song, in its contemplation, in its gaze, in its expectation, in its promise. Out of the water, the mermaid is free to be herself, she chooses to abandon her tail and face the world at a steady pace. With this project we have found, pursued, flattered and immortalized them in their current appearance: we wanted to document their existence, we believe in them... and we have lovingly fallen prey to them.
Sirens are a gift, they are the perfect representation of the power and independence of women; a perfect symbol of freedom, rebellion of spirit and proud independence, but they also represent a woman’s ability towards sacrifice, capable of giving up the freedom of the great oceans and the tail for love, in order to be close to the beloved one. Men often forget this. I invite you to remember this as you look at the portraits in this book.
Did you think we were only offering you a collection of beautiful images? Fool! We are actually offering you a journey into yourself, whether you are a woman or a man. It is up to you to accept the challenge!
