"What is the function of breast and what does it stand for?
The idea came to me when I was reading news. There was a strange robbery in Germany. A woman robbed a store with her breast milk. When the cashier opened the cash register, she suddenly opened her blouse and showed her right breast. She started squeezing her breast and shooting her breast milk into the cashier’s eyes . She then snatched the money and ran away.
I was fascinated by this woman's behavior. Her unexpected move debunked what people think of women’s breasts. It changed the breast from a soft, sexy, motherly female body part to a dangerous weapon. When the breast is shooting out milk, it is both feeding and attacking, which are almost opposite behaviors. In the video, my boyfriend became part of the garden. He’s enjoying/accepting/enduring the milk coming out of the breast." -- Pixy Liao

"乳房的功能是什么、又象征了什么?
这个作品的创作灵感来源于一则新闻。德国发生一起奇怪的抢劫案,一名女子对商家抢钱,但她的抢夺方法,竟是喷人奶。当店员要找钱时,说时迟、那时快,女子突然扒开衣服,露出右乳房,然后开始挤奶,并喷到店员的眼睛,遮住店员的视线,随后抢走收银机内的财物。
我对这名女子的行为产生了深深的兴趣。她的出乎意料的举动打破了以往人们对于乳房的认识。把乳房从一种柔美的、性感的、充满母爱象征的女性身体部分变成了一种具有攻击性的危险武器。在飙射乳汁的时候,乳房同时完成了哺乳和攻击两种近乎相反的行为。在录像中,我的男友化身为花园花草的一部分,享受/接受/忍受着从乳房喷出的乳汁。" -- 廖逸君
