| Description | Moonweavers -A Hero Tale of Ordinary Women displays a female trio, who worships a triple female figure, a triad, known from ancient mythology. The charming Graces, Fates and the warlike Avengers are weaving a thread of life in three different stages: giving birth, maintaining life, and destroying it. Laten on, Mc Alester succeeds in transforming this mythical and dreamlike setting into a reality of contemporary women. |
