BONTE Handmade Jewelry x Dharti Mata Sustainable Workshop

For a long time, we have put our attention to the topics that are related to women, female bodies and the relationship to the mother earth. In the beginning of 2014 we started a project called “ My Womb, My Mother Earth – Uterus Painting”.

For nearly a year, we have hosted 10 Uterus Painting workshops in Taiwan, Hong Kong, northern Thailand border, Nepal, South India and other places, thus collected all kinds of stories about people’s experiences in life. There are feelings of sorrow, pain, joy, strength and balance. 

Based on these stories, it has constructed the conceptual idea of this exhibition. We would like to weave through our hands to connect between you and me, to connect woman and her body, to connect woman and the earth, to connect woman and man, and to connect woman and woman. 

In this July, 120 of the uterus paintings, 3 pieces of metalwork jewelry and collective group creations will be presented in the exhibition, and it will start with a large installation textile to display each unique uterus paintings.

The curatorial group has started in May 2015, and we look forward to the experimental way of presenting in this exhibition.
