Thierry Jutel writes on cinema as an aesthetic, cultural, social, technological, and industrial object. His recent work focuses on the representation of illness, the diagnostic process, illness narratives and the encounter with medicine in fiction and documentary cinemas. It engages with the use of the diagnostic moment in a range of narrative contexts from television to Hollywood and art-house cinemas. It explores first-person illness narratives in documentary filmmaking. This work intersects with discussions within the medical humanities about the relationship between the creative arts and medicine.
Thierry Jutel is interested in supervising research in the areas of cinema and cultural industries; the representation of illness; creative practice as research; medical humanities; cinema and landscape; production studies.
