Interview: Gabriela Mejia Talks About Her Plans for a New Book, Cleavage: New Ways To Look

That is a great initiative Gabby!

As an artist myself, I cant wait to see this gloomy subject matter transformed into alluring piece of art.   Is it possible to have a peak at some of the content?

I really like that this project is also about slapping aside the idea that a disease has to be burdensome and debilitating. I mean of course it is -- it's tough physically. It's tough emotionally. It's tough all around. But often when you let someone know that you have breast cancer, they look at you with doom and gloom, and in some odd way you feel like you have to play that part. Everyone expects you to hide behind closed dooors so I just might as well. Sometimes I feel great inspite of being struck with this disease. And this book will be awesome in giving people who are affected a sexiness, an edge, a hipness because we are all of the above.
