- [on playing a mermaid] For me it was a blank canvas of possibilities, I mean, it was wide open for possibilities. There is nobody to say, "Oh, that is exactly what a mermaid is like, or not like. If you play a rock star or a drug addict, you have a notion of what that should be like. But this is brand new. You just unleash the mind and go for it.
- [on her inspirations to the mermaid role in Siren (2018)] I watch a lot of mammals in the sea, but also a lot of mammals on land because, you know, you can't really emulate fish behavior too much on land, so I try to find different things on different animals to create physical traits and [also I] watched a lot of Björk, because I think Björk is so wonderfully magical and from a different world or something.
