Mara Mattuschka (VO)

Metrópolis features Mara Mattuschka (Sofia, 1959), a painter, performer and film director who has been living in Vienna since the mid-seventies. Central to her work is the human body, understood as an expressive tool and projection surface for the visualization of psycological conditions and processes. Through parody and exaggeration Mattuschka creates ambigous and unstable worlds that can be at once frightening and funny.
