Performance Artist Lays On Ground Under Carpet To Let People Walk On Him

DW: In Virginia, we call this marriage.

In New York City, performance artist Kevin Carpet caused a stir by lying wrapped in a carpet on busy sidewalks and letting people walk over him. He set up near Grand Central Terminal on Wednesday, staying still for hours as some stepped on him, others took photos, and many argued about his act. Some called it creative art, saying it made people think about public spaces, while others found it creepy or unsafe, with one woman calling it “perverted.”

The NYPD got complaints, but didn’t stop him since he wasn’t breaking any laws. Carpet, who’s done this for three years, says it’s about human connection and trusting strangers. Social media posts showed mixed reactions, with some praising his boldness and others saying it blocked sidewalks.
