## Description

From Homer to Waterhouse, from Dante to Disney, one thing seems certain: men fear that women can only add to the inherent dangers of large bodies of water… Yet we cannot help ourselves but wish sirens and mermaids into existence, only to use them as either cautionary tales, or escapist entertainment! We most certainly can’t stop gazing! John William Waterhouse clipped their wings between 1891 and 1900. The Disney franchise milked (sic!) that lavender proto-bikini in a fashion that probably made Jean Paul Gaultier purple with envy!  Dante one-upped them all in "Purgatory" (Canto XIX): his chimeric construct conjures up a crone who cajoles his gaze with her crooning into considering her charming; only the sight and stench of Siren’s rotting guts seem to shake the poet into the awareness of the earthly pleasures perils … Knowing all that, as an artist, I still wanna see… Knowing all that, as a man, I still wanna touch…
