God is A Woman
Inspired by Merlin Stones’ book “God Was a Woman” Anne Vinogradoff offers a stark and bold image that leaves many questions unanswered.
When did the female deity become the male dominated denizen of the 21st century?
How do we get back to an earlier time when the female form was revered and worshipped?
Why do we allow the female gender to be interpreted by mostly male dominated entities?
Powerful in its imagery and thought provoking in its message the artist presents us with a fascinating modern day conundrum that invites organized religion to ask itself the question – where do women stand?
Each Cross represents a different phase in the history of mankind and how beliefs bound to women’s status have evolved. The timeline chosen takes the viewer from the time of feminine goddess being the norm to a time where she personified heresy punishable by death.
