About Medea

Medea, a complex and controversial figure of Greek mythology, was a sorceress and princess of Colchis who helped the hero Jason win the Golden Fleece and escape King Aeëtes. After returning to Greece, she was betrayed, and in her vengeance, Medea killed Jason’s new wife — and even their own children. She embodies the darker side of human emotions, a reminder of both the power and peril of untamed love and revenge.
