Number 54

The interpretation of the medusa myth is very different but what is relevant, for this work, is the relation of Medusa with her image ( Medusa became petrified after a looking at her reflexion in Persée's shield).  Are we prepare to deal with images that we are generating? Are we conscious of what we are representing? I see the pretifaction of Medusa as a symbol of our own ignorance and laxity toward the production and diffusion of images.
After, I guess it is easy to see what we want in Greek mythology.
