Chinese artist Shu Yong is dragging an enormous set of boobies around on a special cart, towed by a cow that has been painted red.

The huge spherical breasts – each almost two metres in diameter – is the work of  ‘pioneering artist’  Shu Yong.

It is being dragged by a red-painted cow and showcased to rural audiences in villages in China’s Guangdong province following an exhibition in Beijing.

Yong has said the artwork is intended to increase appreciation for a woman’s natural curves, with cosmetic surgery having gained in popularity in China in recent years.
