Poisonous rodenticides and its’ antidote vitamin k were placed side by side on the floor.

A rat ate both the rodenticides and vitamin k, it was killed at last after staying in my studio for about a week.

This piece was made & shown in my studio during a studio open exhibition to the public. I placed some food on a table to serve the audiences at the studio entrance, which looks very similar in appearance to the poisonous rodenticides & vitamin k I put on the floor below the photography of Chow Chun Fai’s painting.
