49-year-old performance artist Danny Devos aka DDV performs 'Aktion im ReforMuhka' in M_hka, Leuvenstraat 32, Antwerpen, Antwerpen, Belgium.

I spread out a sheet on the floor and threw pamphlets at the audience. On a small tv-monitor played an excerpt of a documentary on Holger Meins.
I placed objects and books onto the canvas and the canvas turned into a prison cell. Then I took out several ingredients for baking: butter, sugar, eggs, flour, and also some earth from my Hole. I mixed everything into dough and baked 2 classic sand-cookies. I undressed to my underwear and force-fed myself violently to eat the cookies.
