PIG INK - PART 1Tattooing Swine in the Name of Art
PHOTOS COURTESY OF WIM DELVOYE
 rtist Wim Delvoye is into giving tattoos to pigs. (No point in trying to figure out a fancy way to say it, really. The guy tattoos pigs.) Due to laws that say it’s all right to punch pigs in the head with bolt pistols and then cook and eat them by the thousand but not all right to ink a smiling marlin on the odd swine, Delvoye has had to buy a plot of land in China to farm his “organic art.” When the pigs die, they are either stuffed and mounted on a plaque or their skin is stretched over canvas and preserved. Start saving up for one today!
