“Medusa Ferida” (which translates to “Wounded Medusa”) evokes a sense of turmoil, strength, and vulnerability through its bold, gestural strokes and textured elements. From the artist’s perspective, this piece could represent a reinterpretation of the mythical figure Medusa often feared and misunderstood as a symbol of pain, resilience, and transformation.

The swirling magenta and black brushstrokes dominate the composition, suggesting the serpentine chaos of Medusa’s hair. The lines are organic, wild, and unrestrained, reflecting both her untamed power and her inner anguish. The splashes of orange in the background hint at a fiery, almost volcanic energy, symbolising emotional intensity or rage connecting the peace with the collection.

The striking yellow sculptural elements cutting through the composition serve as both a visual contrast and a metaphor. They could represent the metaphorical wounds—Medusa’s struggles, betrayals, or the harm inflicted upon her. The textured, three-dimensional quality of the yellow adds depth, almost as if it’s an external force disrupting or constraining her fluid, organic form.

The artist likely aims to challenge perceptions of Medusa, shifting her image from that of a monster to a figure of humanity and complexity. “Ferida” (wounded) suggests that this piece reflects not just her mythical story, but universal themes of suffering, resilience, and empowerment. It invites viewers to see Medusa, and perhaps themselves, in a new light—scarred but enduring, chaotic but beautiful.
