Moon Womb is a circular form, approximately four feet in diameter, dominated by different shades of red that create a sort of 2-dimensional mandala. The composition is created through the repetition of my drawing of a uterus, composed of flowers, hearts, and vulvas. I printed this drawing in various sizes, cut them out, and pasted them on different materials. Some are on lace, representing sensuality, passion, and power, while others are on a mesh-like fabric, symbolizing tissues and connections. Some edges are burnt, indicative of transformation and purification. The drawings are organized in a circular motion, from the smallest in the middle to the larger pieces on the outside. The piece also incorporates the organic element of roses; the one in the center is preserved to never dry, while the surrounding ones are dried. 

Moon Womb was created during a 9-month course called “The Artist Rebirth Cycle”, where we analyzed our creative processes and the underlying motivations. This exercise was challenging because I did not know where it would end up: I allowed each step to dictate the next, treating the piece as if it were a living entity. Moon Womb is the result of a deep journey into my sacred feminine, encompassing the analysis, meditation, emotions, changes, and challenges of this ongoing journey. It has been a liberating experience, a radical departure from the linear and predictable. I see this piece as a ritual object, an invitation for viewers to consider how they honor the sacred feminine within themselves, regardless of gender.
