Title
The Medusa Effect
Artist
David G Wilson
Medium
Painting - Acrylic On Canvas
Description
This painting has an unusual incarnation coming from a class that I took on Greek mythology. The course was conducted in Spanish and after having learned from the professor that the Greeks used myth in order to explain natural phenomena, I immediately erupted into laughter, because I began to think about the power of Medusa to transform men into stone at the very sight of her and I emerged with a very erotic interpretation of her transformative effect on men who looked at her in the face. Medusa's propensity to turn men into stone made me wonder about the obvious nature of stone and therefore who or what Medusa really was.
