Summary

"The images represent some of the emotions and physical sensations of the menstrual cycle. Medical text is intermixed with personal statements about my cycle. This blend of mystery, honesty and humor, is presented with the hope that the cards can open discussion on this universal, but practically invisible female experience. The ideal presentation is to arrange the cards in a circle on a round table, so the transition from Day 28 to Day 1 of the next month's cycle is continuous, as it is in real life, a familiar spiral that continues for women for perhaps forty years." -- from the artists' website
