MATRIFOCAL ART BY PEGI EYERS


What is Goddess Spirituality?
Access the tenets and main points >here<


Picture
"Images that empower women and honour the Divine Feminine"
This body of work is a joyful celebration of HER!  The seeking of the primordial in my life has led me to reclaim the iconography of the sacred feminine, and to explore the "prima materia" of our motherlines in mixed media. My creative vision is to honour women's timeless beauty and strength as leader, oracle, priestess, eco-warrior, healer and Crone. 

I have discovered that the interior life is the territory of the Goddess. Her sacred presence connects deeply to the intuitive feminine, and
is a source of ancient wisdom and creative fire.  The sacred feminine is an icon of empowerment for all women, a model for re-sanctifying the body, and a catalyst for earth-based spirituality in today's chaotic times. 

I create my art as a healing and devotional practice, with a deep appreciation for the universal symbols, archetypes and beauty in nature that surround us.  Inspired by the "a
rchaic voice in the wisdom body" my work is an attempt to reclaim our heritage today, as an embodiment of the Ancestral Mothers.


Four Icons of Willendorf 
NEW WORK~!​

The “Goddess of Willendorf" figurine (circa 27,000 BCE) was discovered in Austria at the paleolithic site of an ancient matriarchal culture. This icon has appeared in my dreams and visions, has inspired my writing and art, and is incredibly important to my personal mythology.  She represents the magnificent women in my own ancestral motherline, and reaches back in time to the First Mothers.  Iconic Willendorf, The Great Mother Goddess, is the embodiment of fertility, the Divine Feminine principle, and the creative source of all life.

Ancestor ~ Portrait of Resilience

Picture
Acrylic on canvas, mixed media, 2021
As the Covid-19 pandemic set in, I had the epiphany that the Ancestors in my motherline would also have endured times of deprivation, as no era is exempt from cyclical forces. Their ingenuity when faced with famine, flood or disease continues to be an ongoing source of support and strength, in times of uncertainty and restriction.   Acrylic on canvas with collage.

Earth Mother Motorcycle

Picture
             Earth Mother Motorcycle
The Goddess Feminism movement seeks to re-sanctify the natural places of the world and the attitudes and icons of our culture.  Why not a Goddess on a Harley? Commemorative shrines and home altars venerating the Divine Feminine with ritual tools, candles, fruit, flowers and sacred objects are a tradition going back thousands of years. The Venus of Willendorf's wild ride was painstakingly and reverently created with bits of cut paper, fabric and ephemera.

The Matrifocal Lens

Picture
The Earth that is Her Body
If you look closely, the Earth Goddess can be found where line, form, light, shadow and greenery come together in wild nature.  When we discover the reality of the feminine body in the landscape, we are reminded of our connection to the sacred.  The divinity and spiritual power of the regenerative feminine exists both in us and the world around us, and finding these sacred forms in nature is an act of wholeness & joy.

Goddess Binding
This poignant image of Goddess statues tied and ready for transport could represent the historical binding of the Divine Feminine by the patriarchy prior to the resurgence of Goddess Spirituality in our time. The stylized sculptures of Artemis and Aphrodite are watched over by Zeus to the far right (or could it be Dionysus with his retinue of Maenads?)

The Iconic Feminine

Picture
Emily Carr
In spite of the restrictions of Victorian culture, Emily Carr followed her own vision to connect with Indigenous peoples and the land, and to paint the wilderness and First Nations societies during a time of colonization and massive change. Although representative of the Settler Society with her privilege and Eurocentric worldview, Emily Carr's interactions with First Nations displayed respect and deference. Do we discount these
bold paintings and inventive depictions of the B.C. landscape as cultural appropriation, or consider them as valuable artifacts of the era?

E. Pauline Johnson/Tekahionwake
Pauline Johnson's natural dignity, mystic spirit and body of poetic work speaks to us over time and space. As a popular performer and literary figure that morphed into a Canadian icon, her life was lived as a bridge between native and non-native cultures at a time when genocide and forced assimilation were attempting to render the Mohawk Six Nations people invisible.

Picture
Rosa Parks
Honored today as the "Mother" of the American civil rights movement, Rosa Parks is an embodiment of the warrior archetype.  At the time of her refusal to give up her seat on the bus, the dominant culture expected African Americans to obey signs that said "Whites Only" and to know their place as inferiors.  Her arrest was the "tipping point" for black freedom fighters and their allies, and continues to inform the ongoing struggle for human rights, justice and equality in the Americas today.

Picture
Georgia O'Keefe
Georgia O'Keefe is considered to be the mother of the feminist art movement.  Her painting style using organic forms and floral imagery was pivotal in the development of an authentic female iconography, and gave artists permission to birth their own feminine visions. Her passion and strong will led to a successful career in a male-dominated profession, and today the Georgia O'Keefe Museum is the first American museum dedicated to a single female artist.

Frida Kahlo
An inspiration to women everywhere, Frida Kahlo is universally revered for her magnificent and disturbing self-portraits and her vibrant images of Mexican history and culture.  She painted her own personal mythology, confessional images full of symbolic references to physical pain and fortitude.  Frida was a brilliant and charismatic character despite the challenges she faced. Her legacy of visual art lives on as a unique artistic phenomenon!
