Mammary Mountain
Mammary Mountain joined West Sussex Crowd 2 weeks ago

Mammary Mountells the stories not only of survival, but of trauma from the life changing experience of (Breast) Cancer through a haptic garment, so visitors can feel vibration in the area of the lymph nodes where breast cancer grows. It is not only for breast cancer patients and survivors, but for family, friends and those with no experience of cancer in their own lives to have more empathy and care for those who do around them. The piece is explored through animated illustrations, poetry, personal stories of 8 participants with field recordings by Tara Baoth Mooney, while she was going through cancer treatment herself. The sounds and her drawings have been brought to life through the strong visual 3D landscape and evocative animation created by Maf’j Alvarez using VR. Camille Baker had the concept, the narrative framework and did content development, story collection and editing, grant writing, community outreach/workshop development, staging, promotion–is the executive producer.
