About Us
Our Manifesto
The Moon is the symbol of universal cycles: the ebb and flow of tides, day and night, rise and fall. It is also the archetype of the feminine, both hidden and luminous, often unseen yet powerful, feared and misunderstood.
2025 opens within a historical cycle on the waning end of a long period of stability that bears striking echoes of the early 20th century. After major civil liberties had been won in the 19th century, patriarchal backlash ensued. Breakneck technological changes undid societies, empires collapsed, and dictators rose to power as violent nationalism swept up millions in global conflagration. The disaster of this era took decades to repair, while some of the damage haunts us still.
Now, as that repair looks set to be undone by a new wave of patriarchal backlash with nationalist fervor and violent autocrats on the rise once again, we feel it is the time to offer an alternative.
We, as women and artists, refuse to succumb to the forces of violence and patriarchy, and have decided to come together to put forth an alternative perspective. Yes, we are afraid but we are also angry, and in this anger there is love and a desire to see the world on a better path than the one that aims at control, violence, war, and suppression.
We offer connection and a collaborative spirit, the nourishing and nurture of ideas, space for agency and community, for grace and for freedom. To this end, we embody the moon, the archetypal feminine, the force that turns the tides with power and intensity day and night, again and again going from darkness to a new dawn.
