#013 Hypersensitivity

In Greek mythology, Medusa's power is based on the reciprocity of the look: she petrifies the one who looks at her, but also the one she looks at. To see is also to be seen.

 

In the myth, Perseus chooses to defend himself with a mirror shield. For us, this myth represents the struggle of an artist with what he sees.

 

Every artist is like Perseus, he represents the real. But in fact, it is no longer the real, it is the image that the artist have of it.
