Incorporated (Hunger Strike)

Incorporated (Hunger Strike) is a five-channel video installation embedded in a cardboard wall. In each video, the five Food Groups characters appear as animated avatars who undertake a hunger strike in solidarity with Chavez and each other. Slowly starving, they wait in silent dignity for a coming revolution. Over the course of fifteen minutes, their trademark outfits disintegrate along with their bodies, while a jazz funeral march plays.
