Art Installation

The Healing Womb

an art installation by Annabel Du Boulay

The Miracles Room, Glastonbury Experience Courtyard, Glastonbury BA6 9DU

31 July – 5 August 2012 

Annabel Du Boulay’s debut art installation will feature four large acrylic paintings depicting the different aspects of the archetype of the Mother. Each painting will reflect the relevant wounding of women associated with that archetypal energy. Weaving mythology together with the personal stories of women she is interviewing, Annabel’s intention is to create a sacred space where women can journey with their grief and find healing.

Mother of Loss – abortion, miscarriage, still-birth, loss of a child, loss of the mother

Mother of Solitude – infertility and childlessness

Mother of Healing – ill/disabled child and/or mother

Mother of Compassion – mothering children, caring for the mother, mothering in the community

Prints of the paintings will be available to view and buy on this website in August 2012, after which time it is hoped that the art installation will tour around the UK and abroad. If your organisation is interested in hosting the art installation, please contact us on 01823 457419 or alternatively please send us an email.

‘The Healing Womb’ Workshop

Annabel Du Boulay will be holding a workshop within her art installation ‘The Healing Womb’ on Thursday 2 August 2.30-5.30pm in the Miracles Room, Glastonbury Experience Courtyard, BA6 9DU.

“Within the healing womb space of Annabel Du Boulay’s sacred art installation, we will drum journey with guided visualisation to meet Hecate – Mother of Loss, Lilith – Mother of Solitude, Brigit – Mother of Healing & Kuan Yin – Mother of Compassion. Bringing our wounding from the babes we have not birthed (through infertility, childlessness & abortion), the babes we have lost (through miscarriage, still-birth & death), and the babes we struggle to mother (both disabled & non-disabled), we will share our stories in circle whilst each creating a beautiful, healing veil to honour our personal journey.”

Bath PLG Review

After spending a very enjoyable evening on Monday giving a talk and book signing at Bath Positive Living Group, Annabel Du Boulay received the following review from the organiser, Vicky Edwards:

“Annabel was our guest speaker at Bath Positive Living Group on the evening of 23rd January 2012 with her talk, ‘The Serpent’s Tale: From Darkness to Light’. She gave a very memorable and touching account of her life so far – one that has provided some very big challenges to overcome – and how she gained strength from creatively transforming these difficulties into her book. Everybody that attended found it a very moving story – one that can truly inspire you to remember that even the most difficult circumstances in life can eventually be seen as positive and help us onward on our spiritual journey.”
