Embodiment of the illness

Matéusz Kula presented his upcoming work that deals with the “embodiment of the illness” and it would take the form of an “Opera-performance”. His main driving questions are focused on “How body becomes story” and “how story becomes body”. From the very beginning Kula was impressed by the data of the radiology images. He was precisely interested in the “data base” and how it becomes a “massive data of human stories”.

Based on Thomas Bernhard’s writings, he started to create collages using imaginary actors to speak about the narration of the illness using the AKH as a stage.
