Medusa is a sculpture comprising a bronze body and rubber “braids”, and referring to the well-known myth of Medusa, but also to the femicide of Kyra Frosini and 17 other women in Lake Pamvotida, Ioannina, by Ottoman governor Ali Pasha. Τhe sculpture takes shape from the movement of the “tentacle braids” and borrows its color from the algae. A video narrative alludes to the notions of freedom and violence, memory and oblivion, and the passage of time. https://www.onassis.org/art/works/medusa
