I love bringing the farm to the fore. This putciralar effort strikes me as a romance. In it, we can have our cake and eat it too (have our pet farm and a farm too (albeit a romantic one)). It's a far cry from life on the farm but it's better than point-of-unwrapping, pop-in-the-mouth food-from-god-knows-where/what/whom. At least one begins to imagine the actual look and smell of that food on one's plate when its face was alive and looking atcha.As a practical consideration within the romance, I do wonder about hoof-and-mouth disease, flies and so forth. Odors. Dust. Regarding the stated impetus/premise of this piece, and speaking for myself and most everyone I know, neither the kitchen nor cooking has been designed out of _my_ life. I don't know whom the artist is speaking about. What class, what age range, what country, what educational background, what career? Just take a look at the proliferation of cooking utensils, cookbooks and cooking videos, and the rise of greenmarkets, community-supported agriculture, and the 100-mile meal. Increasing numbers of folks are remembering whence their food comes and engaging with real-life farmers. I admit to feeling a bit offended by being served something in this piece that I have already thought of and engaged w/.I'd love to see a proliferation of real urban farms, tours of urban slaughterhouses (humane ones), city kids learning animal husbandry on a daily basis and so on. The fact that art can still make a statement about farming is sad to me. This topic, like topics that have little or nothing to do with humans experiencing each other (environmental topics, I mean), remains WIDE OPEN. Hope to see more. And would love to see more thinking/art-making about energy-dependence at all levels.
