In a 2013 performance entitled Piedra, artist Regina José Galindo walked into an audience and positioned her body, completely covered with black coal, in a petrified fetal position on the ground. Every 10 minutes, a male-bodied "audience member" would approach Galindo, unbutton their pants and proceed to pee on her as she remained deathly still. The obvious nonchalant attitude and ease in which these male-bodied actors could defile the artist's body parallels the wide-spread apathy regarding the safety and care of women’s bodies. The public aspect of the performance only "further underscores the myopic nature of everyday actions that propel repetitive structural violence." In presenting her body as an insignificant piedra (Spanish for stone) Galindo suggests a quality of disposability. She equates the female body to a stone in their vulnerability to violent enactments. More specifically, her work comments on the violence that is particularly prevalent in Galindo’s homeland of Guatemala and addresses the exploitation of the female workers of Brazil’s colossal coal mining industry. The piece, simple yet highly theoretical, aims to expose a history of violence, especially towards Latin American women, far beyond a local level. (wikipedia)

This is what happens when you don't start your theater arts project until the day before it's due.
