INSIDE THE CREATIVE PROCESS OF ARTIST MEGHAN SPIRO
A Little Beacon Blog
Meghan Spiro’s exhibit for October’s Second Saturday was pretty powerful.
The first I learned of it was in the grocery store checkout line, which is where most important information is traded and discussed. What stuck with me was not the subject matter, but the responses she said she got from women she told about the project, which was an autobiographical visual and poetic exploration of the physical abuse she suffered during her marriage.

My Moon
A Bloody, Beautiful Blooming
December 2018, I did a womb meditation guided by my close friend Melissa Robin, then I journaled, wrote a poem, then created this artwork. One of the key visions I received from the womb meditation was the rooting that occurs on a woman’s moon, and that we all hold our trauma and ancestral trauma in the womb. Menstruation gives us the opportunity to release the energies of lovers, the traumas from miscarriages, pregnancies and abuse; it taps us into the current to our emotional and spirtual realm, as we women are channelers between the spirtual and physical realms through our wombs, and our ability to channel life.
This poem and artwork was featured in the show “Cycles” presented by CelebrateWomxn845 at Catalyst Gallery in Beacon, NY in February of 2019.
