A US student who was arrested for indecent exposure at a careers fair says it was a work of performance art. Police say Misha Sulpovar walked up to a stall with his zip open and then coloured his 'genitals' with a highlighter pen.
Sulpovar, an art and religious studies student at Webster University in Missouri, insists he was challenging taboos. In a blog, he appears to suggest the indecent exposure was fake when he wrote: "I go out to a populated, neutral, public place with an unzipped fly and what appears to be scrotum-like flesh hanging out".
But he would not reveal whether he actually exposed himself and said the question itself was becoming just as much a part of the experiment as the act itself. "The reaction completely changes when you change the narration behind the image," Sulpovar told the Webster University Journal. "Real or fake are two separate narratives." Sulpovar was charged with indecent exposure and is due to appear in court on December 14.
