A Note on Concept:
Since long ago, possibly during times of celebration or times of immense distress, humans created goddess-like fertility figurines known in today’s archeological circles as “Venus figurines”. These Venuses symbolize the power of nature, the power of creation, the power of Life and Death, and the Divine/Sacred Feminine. With origins as early as the Paleolithic Era, the continuity of this archetype reflects an adaptable nature and is a powerful force which has endured the brutal test of time.
This repeat pattern design is my modern-day representation of all the Venuses. I designed it to be wallpaper, and it is my response to the crisis of Roe v Wade. If it were up to me, I’d line the walls of Congress with Uteruses as a reminder that We Are Here, and we are all around you…so choose wisely what you do with our rights.
