Song of a Siren

Song of a Siren explores discomfort, fear, guilt, loss, loneliness and longing in facing the unknown. The symbol of the siren is presented in a series of paper fountains, a stream of water trickling from their mouths creating a deafening echo through the gallery. For the exhibition at Korai project space Wetherly explores the archaic symbol of the siren - suspending the sign within the temporal mediums dissecting ideas around seduction and preservation in an attempt to fold time and distance in and upon themselves.
