The Balkaen Game
‘I was no longer an adulteress to be stoned, but an object employed in a rite of love. I desired that they would spit at me more with thicker viscosities.’ - Jean Genet
Inspired by a scene from Genet’s Miracle of the Rose, The Balkaen Game is an installation/arcade game in which the audience is given three attempts to win a prize by spitting into the mouth of a naked man.
