Sun Sentinel: How a Medusa sculpture from a decade ago became #MeToo art
Medusa, one of the three monstrous Gorgons, was a snake-haired female who turned anybody who looked upon her to stone. She was finally killed by the hero Perseus, who used her severed head as a weapon against his enemies.
The Gorgons were three monstrous sisters who lived at the edge of the world; they are perhaps best remembered for their snake hair and fearsome appearance. Two of the Gorgons were immortal, but the third—Medusa—was mortal and eventually slain by the hero Perseus.
Perseus, son of Zeus, was a Greek hero from Argos. He is best remembered for killing Medusa, rescuing Andromeda, and founding the city of Mycenae.
