Inspired and influenced by Alexa Demie's 2022 Fairytales photoshoot, by Petra F Collins and Alexa Demie.
More info:
Euphoria star Alexa Demie was enthralled. Hailing from Los Angeles, Demie grew up surrounded by the Mexican folklore of her mother, grandmother, and aunts, mesmerised by the lyrical, haunting tales of secret realms.
Demie reached out to Collins to express her desire to play such a character, and they decided to do a photoshoot.
In “Sirens,” Demie joins another woman on a strip club stage to dance in a timeless tale of the perilous male gaze. “Sirens enchanted all who came near them.”If any person drew close and heard the singing and saw the dancing, they would never return to their home again." She had never wished for this fate.

Why did being alive and being a sexual creature make her a monster?
