NomadicMILK
NomadikMilk, a project by visual artist, Esther Polak, focuses on tracing the mobility of milk in the Nigerian landscape. She does this by following the nomadic Fulani of Nigeria, as they transport milk in comparison to that of truck drivers hired by PEAK milk, a prominent brand in the country. The trail is mapped with the help of a… GPS system, following which a specially designed robot creates a finely drawn sand map in the ground. Polak spent three years working on this body of work, which tells two stories of milk – truck drivers who transport Peak Milk throughout Nigeria, and nomadic herdsmen who travel through the country with their cattle.
