‘Three lines cross the floor of the gallery room. The first is of treacle, the second of feathers and the third a string of hearts. As the public enters, a melody (Für Elise) is playing on a music box; it repeats continually throughout the performance. Once everyone is seated, I enter and start rolling slowly through the treacle, so that it is spread over my body, followed by the feathers and the hearts. Then I start turning slowly inside a marked circle. After a while, I break the hearts one by one. The performance ends when the last heart is broken.’ (Lydia Schouten)
