Welcome to EveryWoman
A voyage into the unique
bond
between every woman and our planet

The
Golden Ratio,
The Divine Proportion
The Golden Section
Integrus
1xPhi (
) or 1xTau (
)
= 1.618
Used by artists and architects throughout history, in every civilisation.
Why?
I think the answer is in Eve.
The Ratio 1.618 appears in seashells, flowers, insects, gravity, honeycombs,
wings, trees, snowflakes...
1m = 1/10 000 000th
(1 ten millionth )
the distance from
Equator to Pole of Earth.
Pi x Phi = 5
The purpose of this research is to
discover the essence of every
woman, and her relationship to
Earth.
EveryWoman.
By understanding the essence
we better understand the individual,
ourselves and each other.
Every woman is connected.
What is average?
If we find the average of all faces and create a new face from that information,
what does it look like?
What does the average person really look like?
If we all have a common
mother,
what does she look like?
If each person is a variation of an original
then what is the original?
Regardless of whether we are scientist, spiritual, religious or artistic I believe these to be important questions.
Each person is photographed in the same way.
Statistical data is extracted from the images.
The biometric average of all the data is calculated
using a computer program designed for this project.
The biometric data is used to create the final image.
The result is the body of Eve.
Some surprising
information from the project:
What is Average for EveryWoman?
1x = 1.618cm
Did you know...
Eve is exactly 100x cm tall
(1.618m)
Eve is not perfect...yet she is perfectly average...
Eve's left side is 2x narrower
than her right
Eve's left eye is exactly 0.1x
units lower than her right
Eve's left shoulder is exactly 1x
higher than her right
Eve's left foot is 1x smaller
than her right
Eve's foot is equal to her forearm minus 1x
Eve's hand is equal to her upper arm plus 1x
Eve's arm length is 1x x Upper
arm length
Eve's upper body is 7x longer
than her lower body
The Sacred
Geometry of Eve
Needed:
1618 volunteers. The more people volunteer,
the more accurate the final image of Eve.
You do not have to be a model.
All sizes, shapes, races, creeds and colours are part of the average.
