    I think I must have seen it when there was no line. Nobody expressly told me I couldn’t use it, but it was obviously an exhibit, and I don’t make a habit of taking risky poops in art.

    If I had only known…

      I think what we’ve shared here is a teaching moment. Everyone: Poop in Art. They probably want you to!

        If there isn’t a sign saying you can’t do something, then that means you probably should. Got it.

      I can completely understand that conclusion. It’s the first and last piece of art that I’ve literally shit on, and it felt weird doing it. It also made me contemplate why toilet seats are the only item in the world that we are ok touching with our skin after many strangers’ bare asses have touched it.

        It’s because, ideally, only the legs and outer cheeks are touching the seat. If a person with short shorts sits in a chair, nobody thinks twice about sitting in the same chair. One anus brushes a seat, and everyone loses their minds.

          I was never assuming any anus touched a seat. I was only talking about cheeks.
