last rites

Airlifted from the Tour de France, a concussed bicyclist struggles to maintain consciousness as sticky sweet raspberry preserves drip from his ears.  Peanut butter soup is delivered intravenously while a voodoo priestess huffs an oxygen/helium blend from a hookah made of sculpted ice. $1200 USD

le dernier acte du faisan

During a seance, a levitating blindfolded pheasant hovers around the dining room before being sucked into a jet engine along with 2 cups chopped scallion and 1 cup heavy cream.  The result: a sumptuous puree which is poured down the blouse of a recent widow.  $475 USD

assassination of eggs

Dim fluorescent lights flicker as a string quartet is hastily assembled and forced at gunpoint to provide musical accompaniment to the sanguine spectacle of a hen suspended 5 centimeters above a clan of hyenas while she lays her eggs. $625 USD
