On Sunday 4 November 2007 the artist tarred and feathered his body with honey and crows feathers. He then washed his body by lying in a natural spring located in the NIROX Foundation and Sculpture Park, Cradle of Humankind, with long time friend & collaborator Garreth Fradgely documenting the process on video. The work was completed in 2008 and is shown here as installed for exhibition purposes as a large-scale immersive environment (each screen approx 400cm x 280cm). It has since then also been shown as a single channel video projection.
