One of the main themes of this piece is altering expendable objects that don't ever seem to change. I picked two bricks that live outside of the art building at Flagler. These bricks would be easy to replace but they have been in the same place since I remember.
Milk is a metaphor commonly used in my work as a symbol of cultural lust and the extraction of consciousness. The idea of milk teeth revolves around a certain conditioning to this lust for insignificance, almost showing a reversion to Freud's oral psychosexual phase in which one only has the mental capability to worry about themselves.
The white lighter was a found object which has an eerie cultural significance and also symbolizes man's greatest innovations reduced to an expendable plastic object.
