Circe, or Kirke, the ancient Greek sorceress reinterpreted based on Homer's Odyssey. She drives sailors crazy with her song and beauty.
Circe
I worked with a lot of symbolism:
Empty bottle
- Message in a bottle, symbol of a message, of a journey that is being started
In this case it was my journey, because it was the first picture after my “apprenticeship” and the beginning of my work.

- In the image content, the empty bottle stands as a symbol for misfortune, loss, longing
o Circe drives the sailors to ruin, to misery
