warmer waters

The Ice Fish, often referred to as the ‘monster of the deep’, has evolved through millennia to adapt for survival in the harshest of earth’s climates. These blood-less fish with razor sharp teeth have such intricate adaptations for these extreme conditions that they die if they stray into warmer water. 

‘Warmer Waters’ attempts to allegorize toxic heteropatriarchal ideals of masculinity; the need for change and adaptation where men can develop a new code to discover their identity away from the bygone norms of breadwinners and impossible strength.
