Birth(+)Fact(x)Death(-) Calendar

I was hanging with my arms spread and blindfolded in a darkened corridor. To my feet ropes were attached, leading to the door. Each time somebody entered he/she pulled my body towards him/her.

45-year-old performance artist Danny Devos aka DDV performs 'Hij die geen Hart Heeft zal geen Hartepijn Hebben' in Factor 44, Bleekhofstraat 44, Borgerhout, Antwerpen, Antwerpen, Belgium. I lay on the floor with my head under a cupboard. On my chest is written “He Who Has No Heart Will Have No Heartaches”. Driven by an electric motor a knife cut back and forth over my chest. The performance continued for one hour.
