Abstract
The paper aims to introduce biological art projects into the fi eld of narration studies, with a focus on two examples: physiological architecture projects (including Jean-Gilles Decosterd’s and Philippe Rahm’s ‘Hormonorium’ and ‘Split time café’), which go beyond classical representation and concentrate on the hormonal dimensions or the movement of retina, trying to explore the affective aspects of the body, and the artistic experiments of Turkish artist Pinar Yoldas (‘Fabula: Origins of Species’, ‘Speculative Biologies’, ‘After Evolution’ and ‘Remembering The Future’) – sculptures, photos and instalations based on organic materials. The article combines the theory of affect, cognitive narratology, the concepts of storyworld and possible worlds, and redefi nes the terms of post-classical narratology in order to determine whether it is possible to construct a narrative beyond language, an embodied one.
