Hi everyone, I'm back with a Story & Art video, this time about the moon (very autumnal), or more accurately - the woman in the moon, Lone Bird.
This story is told by the the Ojibwe (sometimes called Chippewa) people, native to north America and Canada. I love this story, it's beautiful and manages to combine familiar folklore themes with ideas I'd consider feminist - a rare find for sure!


I hope you enjoy the story of Lone Bird, for detail photos of the work and some more of my thoughts visit my site here https://peculiaris.art/story-art/lone-bird-woman-in-the-moon


Story & Art will be back next month with another story, and next Friday I'll have a different video posted so keep your eyes peeled :)


Till then, have a wonderful week and give the moon a smile (it might smile back)


xx
Naama
