Milk and Honey makes a comment on that universal desire to remain suckled - in one way or another. Interpretations by
viewers of this piece have so far varied tremendously, and the irony isn’t lost on anyone.
Additionally- the sinuous form appears luscious, docile, warm, loud or quiet- depending on how it’s lit or the focal point of
wall it finds itself upon. This ability to ‘feel different’ depending on the exhibition context makes it a fun piece to ‘place’.
