day 126

I moved the support chair into the centre of the jaw to create a throne. This instantly made the piece more interactive and fun.

I rehung one side of the jaw to make it more even and to reinforce it. This made the form easier to discern in my opinion.

I decided to change how the teeth fit onto the jawbone. I bored holes into the sculpture and added roots to the teeth. As a result, the teeth can be pulled out and rearranged. Again, this adds another level of interactivity to the project. The loose teeth and “bandaged together” vibe of the sculpture remind me of decay and dilapidation, further linking it back to my concept of the Irish language disappearing over time after its disruption.
