Description

“Contemporary Medusa” is a striking reinterpretation of the classic Greek myth, offering a fresh perspective on the infamous Gorgon. This unique wall sculpture combines a hand-painted plaster Venetian mask with shades of rich blue and real silver leaf, surrounded by delicate hand-sculpted flowers like white lily and fleur d’oranger blossom, purple rose, bluebells, and eucalyptus, each symbolizing different layers of the narrative.

Through this piece, I invite you to rethink Medusa—not as a monster, but as a tragic figure, punished for trying to protect herself. Award-winning and one-of-a-kind, this art piece blends ancient myth with modern sensibilities, making it a perfect statement for anyone drawn to mythology, contemporary art, or Greek-inspired decor. Featured in the Norval Morrisseau Award for Visual Arts and exhibited internationally, “Contemporary Medusa” is an extraordinary addition to any art collection.

Production Method

Every detail in this piece, petal or sepal, is sculpted from scratch from various materials, such as polymer and air-dry clays, and others, and then meticulously hand-painted for a lifelike finish. Each creation encapsulates the inspiring beauty of nature, striking a perfect balance between botanical accuracy and artistic imagination.

Care Instructions

Polymer and air-dry clay items are thin but durable and flexible. Although, there are a few tips for your consideration:
– Use a dry brush or slightly wet napkin to clean an item.
– Avoid long contact with water. If your flower gets wet, let it dry immediately to restore its properties. You can use a hairdryer, but only cold air is suitable. If your product has lost shape, heat it with a hair dryer for a few seconds, give it the required shape, and then fix it with cold air.
– These items become fragile if temperatures below 0°C (32°F). You should be gentler when using them. After being at low temperatures, give your flowers 15-20 minutes in the room to
restore their flexibility.
– It is recommended that jewelry or accessories be stored in separate boxes.
– Do not put your items under pressure. Do not burn, scratch, or eat.
