Abstract
Blue Milk and Other Short Stories is an exhibition and written thesis that engages in a type of world building or judeo-futurism. Blue Milk is an invented product in an invented world; influenced by the mythology of Techelet or “biblical blue”, the moral fable of the golden calf, the 1971 adaptation of Fiddler on the Roof, and the artist's own fraught relationship with healthcare. These influences and moments of fantasy help develop and question what is considered to be sinful, holy, hurting, and healing.
