Teeth focuses on the tension between held-back aggression and the quiet forms of self-harm that can result from emotional restraint. Using an X-ray image of a jaw alongside references to dental health, the work highlights the physical consequences of habits like clenching and grinding behaviors often rooted in the desire to protect others from one’s own anger or difficult emotions. By visualizing this internal pressure, Teeth reflects on how unspoken conflict can imprint itself on the body, turning suppressed expression into a subtle but persistent form of damage.
