Artist Statement: The great winged steed of the Greek hero Bellerophon Pegasus sprang from the blood of Medusa and carried Zeus's thunderbolt. As a symbol, Pegasus is associated with speed and storms.
A similar horse exists in the medieval legend - Hippogryph - symbol of innate power and the capacity to transform evil into good.
