Product details

Every third dawn is a subtle contemporary climate-change re-telling of the Persephone myth. It draws on the creation of seasons through her survived altercation with Hades, denoting a shift in the world from eternal Spring to it only encompassing the world one third of every year. In parallel, it is now as if our world's 'Spring' is being sacrificed by the climate crisis and ongoing inaction, or more often, inadequate action. We consume our planets precious finite resources as if they are lush pomegranate seeds, yet it is those same seeds that bound a Goddess of Spring and the world itself to a much darker existence.
