“Bodily autonomy is the right of all sentient beings.”
Uterus Prime is a close relative of Optimus Prime, the leader of the Autobots from the popular Transformers series.
But Uterus Prime is also a keen supporter of the campaign to repeal the 8th amendment, and this week, the Autobot is set to return to Dublin.
Today, jumpers and T-shirts bearing the Uterus Prime design are available to buy online in support of bodily autonomy for the women of Ireland.
The garments cost €35 each and will be available for collection on the morning of this year’s March for Choice on September 30.
All funds will go directly to the Abortion Rights Campaign.
The garments’ design combines the female reproductive system with the Transformers hero to create a feminist warrior Autobot that wants to raise awareness for Ireland’s reproductive rights fight.
As Optimus lives by the mantra “freedom is the right of all sentient beings,” Uterus is a believer that “bodily autonomy is the right of all sentient beings” too.
Uterus Prime was designed by architect and artist Rae Moore.
She is a lecturer and tutor in the UCD School of Architecture and the recipient of the Irish Design Institute’s Emerging Talent Award 2017.

The jumpers and T-shirts come in sizes XS-XL and can be collected near the Garden of Remembrance before the March for Choice, or delivered upon request.
Uterus Prime first made their debut last year, with stock selling out in 36 hours – so if you’re interested in supporting bodily autonomy for all sentient beings you might want to be quick.
The sixth annual March for Choice takes place on Saturday, September 30 at 1.30pm at the Garden of Remembrance.
