The Mental Body, curated by The Corner's executive director and curator (and revered DAI tutor 2015-2019) Ruth Noack, draws inspiration from two sources—a sculpture by Maria Bartuszová and a quote from queer artist Anna Daučìková: “To live one´s mental body is a persevering and passionate practice: A labour of self-establishment and self-affirmation that Trans-persons do for themselves and for all the others. They do it also for the sake of peaceful co-habitation and in the name of humanity.”July 23–October 31, 2021
