HELSINKI 1999



For the performance in the Forum Box gallery in Helsinki a text was made of bread and placed on a table. The Edible Finns sat around the table drinking coffee and slowly eating some of the letters, so that the content of the sentence changed. The original text was: Meilläkö ihminen eläisi pelkästään leivästä? (Do people here live solely on bread?), which changed into: ei ihminen elä pelkästä leivästä (people don’t live solely on bread). After this the remaining letters were offered one by one to the public.
