Artist lives with lion to send social message
(China Daily)
Updated: 2006-09-30 09:05 An artist who enclosed himself in a huge cage with a lion in Qingdao Wildlife Park said that through the extreme activity, he wished to raise people's awareness for the pains of isolation and learn to communicate with others. Ye Fu, an artist and poet, entered the 4-metre-high, 3-meter-wide iron cage on Tuesday with the accompaniment of an assistant and a lion. They planned to stay in the cage for 10 days eating raw beef and drinking tap water like the lion does; no talking is allowed. Last year, Ye made a name for himself after he had stayed in a huge bird nest hung outside a high-rise in Beijing for one month. |
