Erotic art with a social message literally hit Delhi streets as Chinese artist Han Bing performed ‘Dreams of Lost Homes’ — a live erotic act — in the New Friends Colony market on Friday.

The act by Bing, clad in just a loin cloth, making meditative love to construction rubble on a bed of cotton was “arousing and spiritual” to some bystanders. The performance was a part of Bing’s interactive art series, ‘Love in the Times of Big Construction’, held along with an exhibition, ‘A Cry From The Narrow Between’. The exhibition is on at Gallery Espace.
