“This stunning sculpture by Liu Qiang is an accurate depiction of humanity’s use of, and utter dependence on other animals and, in particular, the savage and bizarre habit of consuming the breast milk from mothers of other species—milk that these mothers have produced for their own babies, babies that we forced them to become pregnant with only to kill shortly after birth so that we can take the bereft mother’s milk, milk that we drink as though we were the children that we murdered.”

I don’t usually reblog such disturbing content, but I thought this was a provocative and elegant representation of racism in contemporary American culture.

This piece is very serious to me. It made me cry when I saw it, and I was disgusted by the reactions of other people visiting the museum. A woman with her two daughters ushered past me said, “these are disgusting,” one daughter looked up and said, “yeah, freaky.” WHY would you tell your impressionable daughter that art created to celebrate females in their strength (FOR ONCE not defined by beauty or seduction) is disgusting??? Simply because it is vagina-heavy? YOUR DAUGHTERS HAVE VAGINAS! So do you!Men would come through, not knowing what they were walking into, laugh nervously and very quickly turn on their heels and exit, muttering “weird.” This discomfort is deeply disturbing to me. Maybe it shouldn’t be, I admit to being VERY overly sensitive here (obviously, I cried). Thoughts? Let me know.
