Home sweet home

The performance starts with plugging an iron into the socket and placing the same iron on the crotch of a boy's underpants, size 176. From that moment until the end of the performance - roughly two to three hours - burn the iron a print on the crotch of the pants.

Aj. That hurts...
A disturbing image in Drost's work.

Where did the 'celebrating' of the boy go?
Where is the base where it is mounted?
Which theme is discussed here?
Why the aggressiveness?
Where that pain, that suffering.
Why such a sour humor?
Sarcasm?
Cynicism?
