Sóhajtson mélyeket! / Take a deep breath!

The neglected of institutionalised care find themselves in a hierarchical system. They are kept waiting in waiting rooms and corridors, their complaints are delayed, they are detained or transferred… When they are finally called, they are spoken to in a foreign language, whose vocabulary they understand only a few of the prompts. Take off your clothes! Get undressed! Take a deep breath!
The neglected of institutionalised care find themselves in a dependent system. They wait, they bail out, they take care, they make mistakes, they get tired. You can send the two hundred and three patient first, the one hundred and twenty-two to the lab, the forty to home.
Each visitor has a case study of their own: they have been both cared for and cared for; now they arrive in the exhibition space both healthy and sick. Waiting in the interstice of professional and self-diagnosis, he flips through the Pharmacy Magazine and asks those waiting around him who is the last. The exhibition interweaves complaints, diagnoses, cures and further investigations. What do we do with ourselves as members of the forced communities that are born in waiting rooms, hospitals, sanatoria and surgeries? How do we regain control of our assigned roles?
The actors of mere life find themselves in the myth of health. They heal, they cure, they prescribe, they nurse, they care, they avoid illness.

Do you heal?
Are you healing?
What is your complaint?
