Medusa - 1991 - Terra Cotta
31"x21"x18" (HxWxD)
    

This is the moment that Medusa notices that her hair is turning to snakes. She has been bragging about her God-like beauty. Hearing this, Athena punishes Medusa because no one can be as beautiful as the Gods. This theme comes to mind when our obsession with beauth turns tragic: the surprise when breast implants become defective or th eliposuction causes a death; our desire to be perfect countemanding reason.
