ManiFesten Wed 02 Jun – Fri 11 Jun

I’m really excited about my first dining performance in a gallery context!

After 2 magical weeks in Berlin I am back in London for a group show at Trolley Gallery on Redchurch Street. 12 diners will be suspended midair while the fish are jumping and the forks are long.

I developed the idea of the long forks based on an old fable.

In hell, there is a huge feast laid out on the table, but everybody’s forks are so long that they can’t get the food to their own mouths. Struggle as they may, in the face of all this food, they starve.In heaven, the story is almost exactly the same. There is a wonderful feast laid out. The forks are so long that you can’t get your food to your own mouth. The difference is that, in heaven, the people stop trying to feed themselves and instead use their long knives and forks to feed each other. Let’s see what happens in a gallery…

Spoonfed gave it a very mouthwatering preview!
