'Last meals' is curated by Jonathan Kambouris, for a tunnel underpass in Singapore. Death row prisoners from the US lining the tunnel in an exhibit titled 'Art & the Law'. Macabre and so mortal..mint chocolate chip ice cream, one pitted olive, one tortilla chip, garden salad, a banana, steak, eggs, hash brown, Eucharist sacrament, nothing...
The Straits Times used to run a column featuring a chef and then ask what their last meal would be. Morbidly fascinating stuff. D for death wish.

Death penalty...I have mixed feelings about this.
ReplyDeleteGreat take on the theme!!
D is for detail...
Great take..different yet good...
ReplyDeleteAs you say, morbidly fascinating. Good choice for the letter D.
ReplyDeleteOh no!! ^_^
ReplyDeleteD is for Dad
That is morbid! But it is fascinating to hear what people would eat as their last meal.
ReplyDeleteGreat D!
I thin this is one of the weirdest and coolest D posts! Like Mar, I have mixed feelings about death penalty, but I ended up getting morbidly attracted to the wishes people from the death corridr have... Very much a Stephen King kind of thing!
ReplyDeleteKisses from Nydia.
Morbid, to be sure--more so: that which those folks on death row did to be on death row.
ReplyDeleteThere are websites, such as http://www.deadmaneating.com/dmearch.html with last meals and others http://www.tdcj.state.tx.us/stat/executedoffenders.htm e.g., with final words. Interesting that a small percentage of the latter still maintain their innocence, which has always made me wonder about the death penalty altogether.
ReplyDeleteA provocative D post, for sure. It does stir mixed emotions. I wonder if the victims had a choice for their last meal.
ReplyDeleteWishing you a Happy and Enjoyable Chinese New Year!
ReplyDeleteMade me think!
