I would have given a dollar to view this performance art, though 12 hours would have been a bit long to watch it. My participative contribution to his art performance would have been constant derision and insults, artistically-delivered of course.

BAKER, California (AP) - An artist who chained his legs together to draw a
picture of himself hopped 12 hours through the desert after realizing he
lost the key and couldn't unlock the restraints, authorities said Wednesday.

Trevor Corneliusien, 26, tightly wrapped and locked a long, thick chain
around his bare ankles Tuesday while camping in an abandoned mine shaft
about 5 miles (8 kilometers) north of Baker, San Bernardino County sheriff's
Deputy Ryan Ford said.

The Baker-area artist often sketched images inside mines in the Southwest.

When he finished his chain drawing, he realized he would have to seek help
in Baker, the deputy said.

"It took him over 12 hours because he had to hop through boulders and sand,"
Ford said. "He did put on his shoes before hopping."

Corneliusien finally made it to a gas station on the edge of Baker. He
called the Sheriff's Department, which sent paramedics and deputies with
bolt cutters.

Corneliusien's legs were bruised, but he was otherwise in good health, Ford
said. The artist did not have a listed phone number and could not be reached
for comment.

And the drawing?

"He brought it down with him," Ford said. "It was a pretty good depiction of
how a chain would look wrapped around your legs."
