The Mermaid’s Call

This series reimagines the myth of the mermaid through a contemporary, female gaze. Inspired by painting, it blends sculptural lines with softness, creating images that are both visually striking and emotionally resonant.

Between mystery and strength, each photograph captures the essence of a modern siren—bold, elusive, and unapologetically free. The edgy fashion styling, expressive casting, and delicate use of light give shape to a visual narrative that defies traditional representations of femininity.

More than a fashion story, The Mermaid’s Call is a manifesto. A tribute to those who refuse to choose between power and gentleness, who rise, who resist, who reclaim their voice.
