Zipper Device that Shows if I Want to Have Sex or Not shows the artist wearing a device attached to their pants’ zipper. The ritualistic performance takes place in several public areas of the University of Victoria, introducing an inefficient solution to the problem of consent and sexual desire on college campuses.
