The Luto performance was created and performed during the global pandemic caused by the covid-19 virus. I walk naked with an ox heart suspended from my back by a hook and fishing line. I then place the heart on my abdomen and press it against me, wrapping myself with a nylon thread that also passes over the heart. When I feel that the heart is firmly attached to my body, I tie the nylon thread and leave.
