ABSTRACT
There is a clock face at the top of the window representing the idea that the Christian savior is the alpha and omega the beginning and end of time. In the middle is the Virgin, aka Pachamama, who has been used, along with her infant son, as the feminine face of the dominating force but who has now left the institution, giving up the male child who has been used to lead us away from the true sources of salvation our connections with ourselves, hence nature. On the right are symbols of patriarchal religious domination, as in the bishop's crook, and a stained glass window depicting extinct birds and animals. In her arms is the seed, sprouting so strongly that it is coming out of the canvas. On the left are the four elements: Earth, Air, Water and Fire all inviting us to return to their healing powers.
