Although the Major was actually born in Lahore, and Mrs. Ali was born in Cambridge, village society embraces him as the local and her as a permanent foreigner, causing a re-examination of Pettigrew’s long held beliefs.

Period. There is nothing implied or symbolic. The work is a documentation of a sexual act, one that is artificial (because it involves a dummy horse, a construct) and natural since incorporates the actual emission of the horse's sperm. Yet implications and layers of meaning can be derived in viewing the project.
