CHEESE & CRACKERS? One wacky artist is serving breast milk canapes at his new show

 
 
 
 
 
 
 

BREAST MILK cheese and crackers are on the menu tonight at the launch of a wacky Londonimage art exhibition.

Mexican artist, Raul Ortega Ayala has used donated breast milk to create his latest culinary offering to the art world.

Entitled Alejandra Ortiz-Reynoso - after the person that donated the milk - the piece is supposed to ?explore our first encounter with food emphasising its territoriality and boundaries.?

A spokeswoman told Express.co.uk: "He makes the cheese in the normal way ? it?s just a standard process.

"The women donate the milk to him voluntarily."

She revealed the cheese served at tonight's launch would be served to art-lovers on crackers. However, there would be ?no pickle? to accompany the snack.
 
It is the second work in a food-inspired series called At Your Service, showing at the David Roberts Art Foundation in central London.
 
Ayala's next piece - called Obituary Menus - will consist of a string of ten menus showing what ?presidents, public figures, mass murderers and cave men" munched before dying.

    Like eating cheese made from animals that aren't even our own species is any less gross? I am sure it is fine. I love all dairy, I won't discriminate against humans.

    Even though this strikes me a logical, it still creeps me out.
