Intrinsic: Siren's Song is my self-proposed graduation project for my degree programme at LASALLE College of the Arts. Drawing inspiration from understanding water as a metaphorical extension of one's mind, thoughts and emotions, this collection of works explores the creative process and mark-making as meditation and self reflection.

​

Water has a duality that parallels that of humans -- calm vs turbulent, safe vs dangerous etc. There are other similarities, like the ability to hide something more, being mysterious with no one knowing what is really going on inside, neither deep underwater, nor deep within one's own psyche. Just as tides are affected by the moon, so does human emotion. We see a reflection of ourselves in ever-changing waters, literally and figuratively. We are intrinsically connected to water and this connection is the basis upon which I build and develop this collection of works.
