Tooth of the Day:

"Brass Tooth" measures 5.5 inches (14 cm) high x 3 inches ( 7.65 cm) wide x 2.5 inches (6.35 cm) deep.

T
oday I mourn the loss of my Wisdom Teeth. I feel as though this sculpture
by Scottish artist David Shrigley is a fitting tribute to this fact.
"David Shrigley is well known for his witty sculpture's, drawings and hand-written texts. His art frequently asks questions about the nature of contemporary art and its audience. In his sculptural works, he makes physical some of his more curious and eccentric propositions by transforming found objects or by playing with their scale. Shrigley enlarges objects and imbues them with funny eccentric proportions as is the case of "Brass Tooth". "
