Kendall Jenner has been showing off her delightful sense of humor in videos lately, and her latest one has got to be her best. Kendall and BFF Gigi Hadid serve as W's cover girls for the magazine's 10th anniversary Art Issue issue, in which they were transformed into "placebo pets" by artists Lizzie Fitch and Ryan Trecartin.
It looks like the two models were inspired by the shoot because they decided to take on famous performance art pieces to help inspire Kendall's debut work. "I've always wanted to be an artist. I mean, being a supermodel's great, flying on private jets, Karl's my friend, but I think my soul is being an artist," she says. "When you're a model, you're a mannequin for other people. I want to be a director of my own vision."
She and Gigi go on to reenact Yoko Ono's Cut Piece—using a $10,000 dress (whoops!)—and reference the likes of Marina Abramovic, Yves Klein, and Takashi Murakami. In the end—that is after BFF Gigi helps Kendall touch up her makeup—Kendall decides her performance art will be titled "Selfie." Seems about right!
Watch the full video to catch Kendall and Gigi take on performance art, and keep scrolling to see the outtakes.
