Anything for art?
I found this REALLY interesting article about this male artist from Iraq, Wafaa Bilal, who implanted a camera into the back of his skull for the sake of a year-long project that would take a picture every minute. The camera was causing an infection, so he had to get surgery. This article poses a very interesting question of how far is too far in the world of art? Apparently for Bilal, it looks like nothing will stop him from taking pictures.

ReplyDeleteWow, to implant a camera behind your head for art's sake...now that's daring! I've never heard about Bilal, so thanks for presenting him and his work to us!
