Join us for the closing presentation and exhibition of Jody Wood, who spent 3 months in aqb as a resident from the U.S. and for this event she teamed up with our in-house artist Beáta Szabó and guest performers Agnes Grelinger and Imre Vass.
This exhibit presents a participatory laboratory of remedies for beauty, fertility, love, and related ailments. The audience is invited to try, test, and take remedies within an artistic installation environment.

BEÁTA SZABÓ is a painter and visual artist living and working in Budapest. She creates her works in the triple unity of body, food and magic. She is inspired by experience of the female body as well as the kitchen as an alchemical laboratory. She is interested in viscera, the inside of the body. She depicts food in her body or builds a body from food. For her, magic is a healing science that can be used to remedy social and historical injustices.
