On opening night guests were invited to serve themselves strawberry milk from a fountain in the shape of a huge golden donut. Over the course of this work, my installation transformed itself. Changes in the milk produced different states and forms, from fresh milk to whey to curds of foam and the smell of strawberries regressed to the pestilential odour of rotten milk. A colony of gnats were drawn to the installation, igniting questions of beauty and the passage of time.
