The 33-year-old artist staged the performance - named 'Eschatology' - on March 6th at a posh museum in capital Riga.

Stomach-churning footage shows Bērziņš pulling on a white forensic suit before approaching two assistants with a scalpel.

He then cuts a chunk of meat from each of their backs without anaesthetic and frying it in a large black pan.

He then forces each assistant to stand before dropping the fried flesh into their mouths.
