Answer to Question 1

Answer: The ideal answer should include:
1. Both artists compared the bones of the human frame (for Lacy, the survival despite aging of women's bodies) to the solidity of rocks as supports for the earth.
2. Both artists linked the ocean to the breath and blood of human life, emphasized by Lacy in the setting of her piece.
3. Both artists emphasized the rejuvenating cycle of ocean tides as the life spring of the world, linked to the women's years washing over their lives.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: The ideal answer should include:
1. While the Moche vessel with birth scene is a realistic depiction of that event, the object itself was found in a Moche burial chamber, reinforcing its cultural association with death.
2. A pregnant Eve is the featured figure in one section of Van Eyck's Ghent Altarpiece, but a smaller space above her head depicts a violent attack between two males (Cain's murder of his brother Abel) and impending death.
3. The atalhyk woman seated between two felines presents a heavily formed and seated female previously interpreted as a woman in the process of giving birth but with a skeletal figure on the reverse side that combines its association with death.
