by living as a homeless person outside Te Tuhi Gallery. He wore a black face
mask, slept rough, ate only donated food, was spat at and had the police called
to remove him. That two-week work about prejudice has been named as a finalist

performance outside the Auckland Art Gallery. But this time he’ll do it for
three months. In the dead of winter.
