In this retelling of the Greek myth Pygmalion, an artist struggles to let go of her newest masterpiece and begs Aphrodite to bring her to life. Aphrodite complies, and the statue is born. We address the seemingly “simple” questions: What is a soulmate? How do power dynamics affect a relationship? What is free will versus fate?
