Naked Man eats meal at Hastings and Main for artistic stunt (NSFW VIDEO)
Performance artist Brent Ray Fraser is not one to shy from controversy, or his own body. The 35-year-old Vancouverite is known for his focus on erotic and the human body, and a career of award-winning artwork and live performances.
In one of his latest endeavours, Fraser takes al fresco dining to a whole new level, as he sits down and enjoys a steak meal while fully nude at Hastings and Main outside the Carnegie Centre, all in the name of art.
WARNING (NSFW): The following video contains nudity.
The nude meal was filmed in June; Fraser tweeted out his plans, noting the shoot was done guerrilla-style:
Doing a nude photoshoot @ English Bay 2day. Then I’m eating gourmet food naked on East Hastings Street in a guerrilla style performance. BRF

Not surprisingly, considering his body of work (pun very much intended), Fraser often finds himself reminding the public his eroticism isn’t just for titillation:
To all the inappropriate men out there, please stop asking me if I’ll fuck you for $$$. I’m an artist not a prostitute. BRF
