"Today we have seen how this reversal of roles, with Medusa holding Perseus’s head, has become a symbol for the feminist movement. From Garbati’s childhood musings of Benvenuto Cellini’s Perseus statue, through to the contemporary world of social media – the Greek tale has undergone a total shift in meaning by reevaluating the myth through a modern lens. For those within the #MeToo movement, this is a significant shift in the power roles associated with the genders, whereas for its detractors, it is a slightly sexualized male portrayal of a misinterpreted subject matter."
