Birth(+)Fact(x)Death(-) Calendar
In an AMVK-installation I was laying naked on a rotating platform, naked with my legs spread, my feet tied to a branch. By shuffling over the platform it looked as if I was moving forward, but yet remaining on the same spot. On the background a film of the same performance in a wood was projected.

A recently caught tiger shark swimming in a public aquarium regurgitates the tattooed arm of 45-year-old boxer and small-time criminal Jim Smith in Coogee Palace Aquarium, Coogee, New South Wales, Australia. Smith's arm had been cut off, which led to a murder investigation. The case has remained unsolved to this day. More info: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shark_Arm_case |
