Belgian artist Wim Delvoye has created a tile floor made from cold cuts—sort of. I'm going to let you soak in the sight above for a bit ...

I'm kind of glad it's C prints. My first reaction was that it was a waste of perfectly good pork products!

Maybe next time he should use "Sea prints", and make the tiles from steamed chunks of salmon, shrimp & lobster.
