Uterus Dentata (and Other Frightening Ceramics)

Of course I’ve heard of toothed vaginae. But a toothed uterus?!

Beware little girls, this is what happens when you sleep with the tooth fairy.

This pregnant lady has a tooth in her belly, a molar, where usually a fetus would be! Also there is a toothy grin on the back of her neck!

Crap! There’s teeth on her neck, too?

Living in NYC, I’ve often wished I could use my uterus as an extra storage space for Christmas decorations or sporting equipment. Not for teeth though, I really do prefer to keep those in my mouth (along with my foot).

Not into teeth? No worries! The artist has a whole slew of uteri stuffed with creative goodies – muffins, testicles, waving kitties, whistles, and even a bowl of noodles. Based on the way I felt during my last period, I might have to commission a piece with a hello kitty chainsaw crammed into the uterine area.  Don’t panic – I have more pictures for you.

Speaking of periods, the artist also has a little something special for the “feminist or menstruation enthusiast.”

Let’s get real people. Who ISN’T a menstruation enthusiast? I can’t think of a better thing to get enthusiastic over. If I’m not oozing sanguine sludge from my toothed uterus, I want to gaze upon a ceramic vagina sculpture “with some blood pouring out!”

They are around actual size. The size you would think a sculpture of a vagina would be.

That’s odd.  In my mind a sculpture of a bleeding vag should be at least three stories high and have a working fountain.  Ugh.

    Personally, the cupcake one speaks to me. Do they have it in cookie jar form? It has all the things I love; boobies and sweets. A victory for the art world.

    I stumbled in from Elly’s blog. Although I already asked her to marry me, I might also ask you and we can all sort that out later.

    I love your blog. I am a feminist, although not a lesbian, someone is going to get the vagina candle holder for Christmas. Great idea.

    Interesting… I love when feminists feel the need to (quickly) point out they are not lesbians. Anyway, these are… bizarre, to say the least. I don’t think I’ve ever felt the need to stick household items into my uterus. However, if there WAS a chainsaw one, well, that one I would at least understand.

    Do you hear that? It’s the thud of heavy tear drops flying from my eyes and hitting the floor. I’m all about tooth-in-a-uterus- I even know a dentist I could gift it to- but I became seriously woozy upon seeing bleeding vag. Although I’m starting to see it’s merits as a drink holder now.
