Teeth Sculpture — Ella Hodges

Window Sill Teeth | Sculpture

2024

Through sculpting large foam teeth, this project delves into the theme of persistence, both in the meticulous process of production
and when caring for our bodies. The hours spent crafting each tooth echoed the ongoing dedication needed to maintain well-being,
a reflection of life's ceaseless rhythms. I embraced the challenge of getting my hands dirty, exploring new materials and mediums, and allowing the process to unfold as I make mistakes. This piece speaks to my fascination with the delicate balance of life and death through the continual commitment of taking each day as it comes.
