this show opens on friday november 28th. 7 - 10pm
all the work is by artists whose work focuses on mouths in some fashion.
2640 St. Paul, Baltimore MD
come be gluttonous with us!



and more



still more mouthpieces

these pieces are more of the mouth instruments i've been making. materials include steel, copper, enamel, and lots of sheep
and hog gut. i'm especially interested in exploring the dichotomy created by making beautiful, voluptuous forms out of a
material that could be seen as repulsive.
