To Mow or Not to Mow

So, I got the mower finished. It looks even more pristine than I had envisioned it and has a real dark sterile feel about it.

As the mower is still fully functional I've been playing with idea of a performance  piece. Maybe getting hold of some turf and laying it out in a long strip, around 10 meters or so and just cutting the grass until I get to the end.
Might be a health and safety nightmare in the triangle space though!
Alternatively I could cut the grass before the show starts so all that was left was the remnants of what had happened.
