    installation with three tables with sunshade, three walking chickens

    Panamarenko built this poetic installation consisting of three tables with a sunshade as the stage on which to demonstrate three walking chickens. The three brightly coloured birds were fitted with a small electric motor driven by a battery. The
    mechanism used to make the chickens walk refers back to Crooked Leg from 1994.
