Collection Concept:
Reconnect with the ancestral feminine energy that hides inside you. Rediscover your body, its beauty and forces. Embrace its uniqueness and get empowered by it. Get in touch with your roots, spirituality and creative side.
Cucuteni-Trypillia (5000-2000 BC) was a peaceful, matriarchal society that believed in female deities. Motherhood and feminine energies were placed in the center of their culture. The most intriguing artifacts are these terracotta female figurines, which could be tokens of protection, ritualistic objects, representations of deities - depending on the shape and symbols they had.I wish to bring the symbol of this ancient female figure back into the present as a reminder for you to embrace your feminine side and get empowered by everything that it means to you.
