About this Event
In the face of adversity people have discovered the transformative power of creativity. Join us for an empowering afternoon of readings and discussion. Things Went T*ts Up (Orla Kelly Publishing) by Dearbhaile O’Hare is a powerful collection of refreshingly honest, raw and humorous poetry, illustrations and reflections that speak to the courage and strength of those affected by breast cancer; a book about striving to rise above challenges, no matter what life throws your way. Mammary Mountain by artist Tara Baoth Mooney, is an intimate immersive virtual reality (VR) and embodied haptic experience that explores dis-ease within the body and its relationship to the broader context of the land, created based on her journey after being diagnosed with breast cancer. It was selected to appear at the Venice Biennale and will premiere in Ireland as a full installation in Carrick On Shannon from the 18 - 23 November. Join us as Dearbhaile and Tara discuss their journeys and how they channeled the challenges faced into art that will resonate with many.
