Monastic Patient

In an extensive cycle the Monastic Patient, Stratil's constant preoccupation with play with his own photographed image is rooted. What is more, it is his first use of public photo lab. In black and white pictures he parades disguised with props. He creates raw images of spiritual uproot, physical asceticism and contemplation, spuriously mocked by humor and unobliterating fact that this is all performance.
