Living on love and fresh air - an experiment on fish


It looks more like a cross between a scientific experiment, curio box and erotic object 
It started from a cheap mechanical plastic toy, a fish eating a fish, I discovered at Vasai market.  It has a small fish in its mouth and flips its tail, opens and closes its mouth as if swallowing the small fish in its mouth.

If the small fish is removed from the mouth of the big fish, its motion of opening and closing of the mouth looks like it is gasping for air. This led to feeding it air and then to experiment of proverbial, survival on love and fresh air.  As the air pump, lotus, and doll’s head got added to it, the experiment gave away to other meanings.
