shepard's ashtray

Aren't we a flock of sheep lead to a downfall? 

This symbolic piece was crafted from a found object - sheep jawbone that the author found on the plains in Southrn England while smoking tobacco. It serves as a death charm as well reminding the smoker of consequences visible in teeth damage. Featuring various creative ways of resting the roach (teeth are removable) the piece invites to approach addiction in a playful dance-macabre.
