Although this painting was created before
the COVID-19 pandemic, its’ relevance to how humanity across the planet has
been herded, enclosed and policed is striking. Cows are held inside a shed, depending
on humans to provide sustenance.
Dairy farming involves captivity, docility,
exploitation. The image touches upon how we comprehend and treat fellow creatures,
what freedom individuals really have, and how much people (in particular women) are
required to sacrifice for the benefit of others.
