Blood of Two 2009

"Blood of Two" is a 2009 photograph by Matthew Barney. The image depicts a metal trough filled with a red, viscous liquid, positioned near the sea on a rocky shore. The red substance appears to be flowing from the trough into the water, creating a stark contrast against the blue water and white foam of the waves. This piece is characteristic of Barney's work, which often explores themes of transformation, the body, and the relationship between nature and human intervention.
