memories of the sea

memories of the sea - short film by Paul Windridge also premiered at Visioneca - soundtrack "seaquencher" by 00 Newchair

The first few years of my life were spent in a place that seemed to be almost a million miles from the sea.

But once my grandparents moved to a small southern coastal town, my summer holidays became very different as they were spent almost exclusively with them.

This short film includes some fleeting visions from my childhood recollections.

Memories of the mesmerising, playful, calm, but sometimes turbulent, terrifying and all powerful sea.

Visions of a drowning woman

In mythology creatures from the deep were often the most powerful, and the sirens especially symbolic of the sea's dichotomy.

Water is both the giver of life and the destroyer, and as companions to Persephone, the sirens were the epitome of this strength with their mesmeric, enchanting and bewitching ways in luring seafarers to the depths.

 The siren dances for the drowning woman, but the woman survived.
