Trash or Kroner

Years: 
2013
Framing Text: 

Part of the Hitparaden Festival in Copenhagen produced by liveart.dk, Esther and Brian sing a song from Any Size Mirror is a Dictator repeatedly while digging through ice for plastic gloves filled with frozen milk, then invite the audience to smash tiny clay heads filled with ketchup with a large mallet onto paper plates. We pick up the paper plates using magnets in headbands, the backs of the plates spell out: WHO IS CLEANING UP? We then collect "trash or Kroner" from the audience into a plaster head, sealing it up with plaster bandaging soaked in mudpuddles. We then take the sealed head full of trash and money and walk with the audience to the nearest body of water, and hurl the head into it.
