Description:
In Celtic and Norse mythology, selkies, meaning ‘seal-folk’, are beings capable of therianthropy: changing from seal to human form by shedding their skin. Emerging when the time and tides are correct, seducing or being held captive by human lovers, similar to their cousins the ‘kelpies’ and ‘finfolk’. Our composite shape shifting water siren emerges from her underwater world to ours, casting her spell of seductive and violent dance. Is it love and desire or appetite and malice? Soon
