Pilar de la Fuente

I did this performance when I was nursing my 6-month-old son. The action consisted of extracting my milk with a hospital-grade breast pump. Then I poured the milk into a white pewter plate with a navy blue edge and placed it on a random chair among several chairs. Later, to the sound of a piano playing, I began to walk around the chairs, stopping and sitting on a chair each time the music stopped. The chairs went down one by one each time I sat down. The performance ended when I sat on the plate with my milk.
