Description

Quoted from the masterpiece of Mannerism, Cellini's masterpiece Perseus. The pedestal and Medusa scales are decorated with banknotes and gold leaf from 100 countries around the world. The idol was made from lacquer with mother-of-pearl, and the eyes were buried with blue shells. The sword uses Power Stone Serenite for purification. Medusa's skin is made of chalky powder, which is used in Japanese style. A modern idol sculpture that pursues a mythical image that integrates Japanese subculture design, traditional craft techniques, and Renaissance modeling. Using the myth of extermination of Medusa as an allegory, we hope you will solve the mystery of the symbolism of the statue. The relationship between modern civilization and currency exchange seems to be similar to the relationship between God and man
