Description
This is indeed an action art, as indicated by the title. The artist was wrapped by white bondage, going through a process of mummification. Suggested by the photo, there was a camera recording the artist being wrapped and experiencing it. He was encapsulated and escaped from the crust, or it is also possible that the artist created a mechanism enabling the crust to self-deconstruct in some way. (Zhuocheng Jiang '26)
