Boadwee tells it
Apparently at an art exhibition, he holds a beer in his right hand, makes a gang sign with his left hand, and enunciates "R Kelly is in the house" in a singsong contralto. The camera then zooms in on the mouth of Boadwee's companion, emphasizing his amused approval. This video is only seven seconds long, and thus well worth your time.
The phallic repertoire
Boadwee's ouvre is not limited to anally-oriented art. His penile and testicular images also have garnered critical acclaim.
