Non ho mai pensato che dentro di me fluisse vita

Have you ever wondered where Beauty was born?

According to an ancient greek myth, Aphrodite, goddess of Love and Beauty, was born from the spilling of blood in the sea near Cyprus, or Cithera.

Now, there's another situation, very common but not much spoken of, where Life is tightly bonded with blood: the reality of menstrual cycle.

Incredibly, this deeply poetic ritual of the female body is regarded at with little respect and mostly disgust; but I'm sure if you will take some time letting yourself be cradled in the gazing of this embroidery, replicating the circles formed by blood falling gently in water, you will feel its inner poetry.
