Ricordo di gioventù

On the eve of menopause, I felt the need to create a mark, a trace, a keepsake of what had been a presence-companion for over forty years of my life. So vital it is the cradle of new life, cyclical like spring, here it appears in it’s linear dimension with a beginning and an end, the landscape of the life of a women.
I never imagined I would show this piece belonging to such an intimate part of myself. It is not the representation of a taboo , it is a taboo itself.
