LA LOBA by artist Pantovola

The story of LA LOBA can be found in the stories and myths of cultures across the planet. ‘LA LOBA’ is the Wolf Woman who gathers and preserves bones, especially those of those that which are in danger of being lost to the world.

She sings over them to bring them back to life – literally remembering them with her magical song – a powerful image of the Crone as not only the midwife of souls but she is who is the catalyst for renewal and rebirth.
