Artist becomes a chicken in egg hatch stunt


Still Waters

Recommended Posts

French artist Abraham Poincheval - who has already spent two weeks living inside a stuffed bear - plans to commune with the humble chicken for his latest performance stunt.

How? By incubating 10 eggs with his own body heat.

He will live inside a glass vivarium until his charges hatch, watched by visitors to the Palais de Tokyo museum in Paris.

Poincheval expects the process to last between 21 and 26 days.

"I will, broadly speaking, become a chicken," he said.

His patience finally paid off this week when the first of the eggs began to hatch, forcing Mr Poincheval to temporarily rise from his nest for fear of crushing the little yellow chick that emerged.

The 44-year-old artist's ordeal is far from over, however, as he must stay in the glass case until the other nine eggs deliver their chicks before he can return home to his two human children.
