New York, USA. 13th Oct, 2020. Artist Luciano Garbati speaks before Medusa With The Head of Perseus (MWTH) sculpture unveiled in Collect Pond Park in honor the 'Me Too' movement. Sculpture inverts the narrative of myth of Medusa, portraying her in a moment of somberly empowered self-defense. In myth Medusa is herself blamed and punished for the crime of which she was the victim. Godess Athena banishes and curses Medusa with a monstrous head of snakes and a gaze which turns men to stone.
