The Last Supper project started with the simple idea of eating your last words.
It takes groups and sets of last statements and last meal requests.
The suppers are the last meal requests of prisoners on death row, Texas.
These meals are very specific; e.g. chocolate birthday cake with 2/23/90 written on top, seven pink candles...
The other sets of last statements are elaborations of factual or fictitious recollections or reports of last words scenarios.
Some are hearsay, some of them are based on a fact, are lies, uninteresting, adapted, some requested, demanded, some plain gibberish, humorous, fascinating, and dull.
The sets include: A guest list of Victor Hugo, Marilyn Monroe, Franz Kafka, Noel Coward, Vincent Van Gogh, Pablo Picasso, George Braque, Andy Warhol, Nelson, and the Wicked Witch...
The last supper was created for Time Festival Gent, and is a Nieuwpoort Theater and Limelight Theater co-commission.
