Kuba Falk (b. 1984) is a performer and intermedia artist for whom the body is a carrier of memory, history and identity. He works with performance, video, sound, installation, photography and text. Central to his practice are queer-informed notions of identity, the relationship between the body, technology and nature, and ecological narratives. He describes his work with the term bodytales (Polish: ciałoopowieści) — performances in which the narrative is re-created on the side of the audience.
His work has been presented at Le Générateur in Paris, Baryshnikov Arts Center and Grace Exhibition Space in New York, The Watermill Center, Hamburger Bahnhof in Berlin, and at numerous festivals, including in Porto, Prague and Kyiv. He is a recipient of grants from the Polish Ministry of Culture and National Heritage, the Adam Mickiewicz Institute and Culture Moves Europe.
