3. Milo Moiré – Plop Egg 2014
Milo Moire, a Swiss artist and model known for her nude performances and the use of her body in her art, removed all of her clothes and walked down the street, onto a bus, and lined up for a ticket to Art Basel with nothing but a bag, a pair of heels, and the words of the articles of clothing she would normally be wearing written in black marker on her naked body. This was followed by the project, the “PlopEgg Painting Performance – a Birth of a Picture”, performed at Art Cologne 2014, which was a work of action painting that involved the expelling of paint filled eggs from the performance artist’s vagina on to a canvas, thus creating an abstract work of art. The eggs contained ink and acrylic paint.
