PIG FARM IN THE SMALL VILLAGE NEXT TO PLZEN, CZECHOSLOVAKIA
THE "BE A PIG" PERFORMANCE.
The photographic
documentation of this performance piece was confiscated by the
totalitarian government security forces, and probably destroyed. I was
interrogated and sent away for a psychiatric evaluation. The drawing was
made later as the reconstruction of the performance.
Being a
part of the Czech underground artistic movement "Second Culture", I
decided to leave the human society and live with the pigs. I considered
them more acceptable than the people from the society I lived in. I went
to the huge pig farm nursery, took of all my cloth, lied down in the
pig shit next to the friendly mother pig, join feeding with her other
piglet babies.
