Br00dm0ther’s e-Fable

Br00dm0ther’s e-Fable is a short film that combines simulation and performance. The film is a deconstruction and reimagining of the female monster character Broodmother in video games. The Broodmother is a new species of fully digitised, slimy spider-like creature with the ability to devour, vomit, scream and breed demons. In this work, the Broodmother transforms into a powerful avatar that tells a scientific myth about life, nurture, ecology, and technology. Combining research into mythological narratives and ecology, the artist reinterprets the story of the Broodmother in a compelling visual language that seeks to evoke the power of the female monster and challenge the violence of emerging media technologies against the female body.
