Pudenda
In martriarchal mythology the three-shaped moongoddess is a symbol of life in all it's aspects as well as of nature in it's cycle.
The white moon sickle is the symbol of the goddess in the shape of a girl, symbol for youth, innocence and spring.
The red full moon is the symbol of her as a mature woman, goddess of love and fertility, who is reigning in summer, the climax of the year.
The black sickle, or new moon, symbolizes the old woman shape of the goddess, as the death goddess, she rules the underworld and takes all life with her in autumn and winter - and lets it rise again in springtime of the next year to continue the cycle of life.
This work is a part of the installation "life steps" - I made some interpretation of the "fertility symbol" using the mythological colour red.
