Description

Object description

image: Three Land Army girls practising with artificial rubber 'udders', learning the milking technique.

Label

Land Army girls are introduced to agricultural practice and 'nature' through the use of contemporary technology. Dunbar plays with the obvious visual humour of the surreal situation. At what point does the machine stop pretending to be a cow? The painting is also a comment on how technologically driven modern, urban life has now become the means of access to both agriculture and, by implication, the natural world.
