Mother’s Milk

•

From primitive barbarism to exquisitely delicious feasts, the history of food is also the history of human civilization. Historically, a mammalian animal’s first eating experience is drinking milk from its mother. While our relationship to food–and how it is consumed–in the contemporary context is linked to larger issues of class, economy, and culture, the instinctual act of nursing transcends social hierarchies. Mother’s Milk is a set of flasks that formally and functionally reference udders–a visual link to primal beginnings.
