Matt Bodett performs one part of Twelve: a series of performative koans. This performance investigates the schizophrenic experience and its place in a contemporary lexicon. Twelve is a residency project sponsored by Bodies of Work and 3Arts taking place during September and October 2017. Bodett was diagnosed with schizophrenia in 2004 and now serves on the advisory board for the Institute for Therapy through the Arts. He teaches in the Fine Arts department at Loyola University Chicago and Northeastern Illinois University.
