THE GODDESS RETURNS
- PROTECT THE EARTH

ecofeminism & art


In a time when climate change and environmental destruction threaten our world, this exhibition turns to art to explore a powerful philosophy: ecofeminism. This is a meeting place for mythology, modern activism – and art!

The five artists in the exhibition have all been inspired by the ideas of ecofeminism in different ways. The artworks take us on a visual journey, allowing us to reflect on our relationship with the earth and with each other.

In this exhibition you will find Monica Sjöö’s iconic piece God Giving Birth. The painting meets Glenda Leon’s musical sculptures, Moki Cherry’s spiritual textile artworks, Ira Lombardía’s photographs and Elisabeth von Samsonow’s activist sculptural world.
