Skeletal Performance Art

'Breathing with Skeletons' by Marina Abramovic is Creepy

Marina Abramovic is a performance artist who regularly pushes the boundaries of normalcy and comfort. In this exhibit she is featured lying on the ground with a skeleton on her stomach.

All she does is breathe with the skeleton, so the audience can see the skeleton's body go up and down with the rhythm of her breathing. Marina Abramovic definitely pushes the boundaries with this exhibit, namely in terms of thought processes and how it is deemed 'art.' She is definitely talented.
