Ode to Gy(n)a

Anarcha’s Gallery, December 2024 - March 2025

This mural project, a collaboration between Skaped and the Vagina Museum, is a bold and thought-provoking exploration of bodily autonomy, identity, and collective empowerment.

Created by a diverse group of creatives, the mural uses vibrant colours and striking symbolism to spark conversation about liberation and solidarity. This mural is an amalgamation of what each of the participants brought to the space when asked to focus on bodily autonomy and liberation.

We sought to show the beauty in self-possession, in the profound right of individuals to make decisions about their own bodies, and in the resilience of human spirit that transcends external constraints, honouring past generations of women (Mothers of Gynaecology, Gaia, Mother Nature) that have given us space for the next generation of women to finally be free within their bodies.
