Art against breast cancer
Art Project by Artstudio Norarts 13/10/2011
Artists and women affected by breast cancer together for a good cause
THE PROJECT This project is a collaboration between artists and women who have survived breast cancer or are struggling with the disease. The purpose of this project is to give these women the courage to show that a woman is also a woman without breasts, that life goes on and prove that women do not have to hide. Because it seems to be an unspoken rule in this society that physical integrity must be restored to any price. We wish that the society finally accepts that nothing will be as before, just as patients have to feel it first hand. We wish that these women have in collaboration with artists, magical moments, moments of joy and unforgettable moments. We want to prove with art and our support as artists the courage of these women.

WHY?
Artists dedicate their talent to join this cause. This project will be primarily for women and to give attention that individual efforts can trigger a social backlash of support. It is through art sensitize women and family carry the message ... Living with Breast Cancer. There is still much resistance to bring a message of prevention and sensitization to a paciente. Many women with this disease are overly concerned about physical aspects which in reality are not as far-reaching because it is not a matter of life or death ... however, breast cancer, yes. Also we want to pay attention that before a physical imperfection, it is more important to worry about doing a self exam every month. Mainly we want people who have had breast cancer feel confident to share their experiences through art. We believe our project can help mentally and physically.
We want to help these women to accept their bodies and give them the opportunity with art media and in collaboration with artists, photographers and so on to express their experiences, emotions and thoughts and with this project to make a call to society.
