SACRAL SAGA
This piece represents the narration of the sacral saga, the story that connects woman to woman by common physical traits and the shared female experience. Named “sacred bone” by ancient Mesoamericans, Egyptians and Indian cultures alike, the sacrum was believed to be the resting place of the soul. As such, this area was meant to be treated with respect, veneration and protection; it was seen as having power to effect transformation and even pass between worlds. Every woman holds this story- a heroic tale of bending to the task, finding stability, then rising again, renewed and stronger than before. It is a tale of holding much. Pair this piece with similar works, Virescent Vessel or Mother Mirth, to sense the weight of our truths, the breadth of our arms and the load of love we carry.
