Medusa with the Head of Perseus, Luciano Garbati, 2008

I adore how she carries his head low, at her side, and not aloft in triumph. This is not a self-aggrandizing hero lauding her great deed. This is a woman who wanted to be left the fuck alone.

The Fates: Clotho – Lachesis – Atropos

Known in Greek myth as incarnations of destiny; the Spinner, the Allotter, and the Inevitable.
