Throughout history, numerous tales have circulated about the female form, ranging from the empowering to the bizarre. These stories have not only persisted through time but continue to influence contemporary views of women. "The Shrinking Goddess" delves into this rich history by compiling stories from around the world about women's bodies and examining the reasons behind the historical male desire to interpret, dominate, and 'tame' women. In her work, Mineke Schipper explores the fading presence of the original creative entity, Mother Earth, in mainstream culture, and investigates the various ways women's bodies have been conceptualized over time. This includes mythical figures like the demon daughter of New Mexico known for her toothed vagina, and the cultural phenomena in Japan and Europe, where women's bodies are symbolized through items like 'breast puddings.' By utilizing a remarkable collection of art, literature, and folklore, Schipper aims to re-establish the female body as a source of power, creativity, and potential.
