About the project
The Golden Thigh is a collaborative art project by Nataša and Katja Skušek. The project involves a discussion about nutrition, food preparation and everything else related to food. At first glance, it has a light, humorous structure. However, a more detailed examination reveals a whole range of divergent views, issues and obsessions.
