Shireen Renée
"Jealousy" Mixed Media Medusa Art
Jealousy is a striking mixed media self-portrait by Shireen, reimagining herself as the mythological Gorgon, Medusa. The artwork features a swirling, texturized pattern created with painted pistachio shells and oil-painted reptilian eyes, abstractly symbolizing Medusa’s iconic serpentine hair. This piece delves into the mythological tale of Medusa, whose jealousy-fueled transformation led her to lose her head at the hands of Athena. Her severed head, however, became a powerful weapon, capable of turning anyone who gazed upon it into stone. Jealousy masterfully blends symbolism, texture, and mythological narrative, offering a unique take on the ancient myth, while exploring themes of beauty, rage, and transformation.
