Check out THE MOTHER OF ALL THINGS GAIA! Her lush gracefulness is brought to life monochromatically in Mighty Jaxx latest Inked Stories collaboration with Jon-Paul Kaiser, following the releases of Medusa and Eve is here!
From the dawn of creation, comes the mother of all life—Gaia. The primordial deity’s name translates into ‘land’ and more commonly, ‘nature’, for whom she presides over. The Greek gods themselves descended through her union with Uranus, and mortals directly from her earthly flesh.
The goddess comes to life in this collaboration between JPK and Mighty Jaxx, hot on the heels of Medusa and Eve. As part of the Inked Stories series, the tattoos that cover her body share her story–each featuring a different continent, forming Earth herself.
This is the beauty of Gaia held in high esteem, for all to admire.
The Great Mother
All of the creation descended through Gaia—the heavenly gods through her union with Uranus, the sea gods through her and Pontus, the giants from her and Tartaros, and mortals directly from her earthly flesh. In total, she had over 60 children.
She was the second to be formed, after Chaos himself. After spending time alone, she created Uranus for company and let him rule over the sky to keep him happy.
The Rebel
Even as the mother of the heavenly gods, Gaia was not one to conform to their wishes. She first rebelled against Uranus, who had imprisoned her children within her womb. She teamed up with her son, Cronus, who successfully overthrew his father.
When Cronus continued imprisoning her sons, she teamed up with Zeus during his rebellion against the Titans, which saw the lightning god victorious.
The Personification of Earth
As a primordial deity, Gaia was not just a character in the Greek epics—she represented the fundamental forces and physical foundations of the world. In Hesiod’s Theogony, the creation myth of Greek mythology, she was referred to as “the ever-sure foundation of all”.
According to the Iliad, black sheep were sacrificed to her and she was invoked when people in the past took oaths. These Ancient Greeks believed that all life and elements of the earth came from her.
Gaze at beauty personified through the original existence before all—Gaia! This Inked Stories collectible, in collaboration with JPK, features the continents tattooed across her body—representing her being as Earth itself.
