Through a female perspective, “Odontophilia” plunges us into the fascinating world of teeth with a touch of humor, while questioning societal norms and our relationship to the body.

Inspired by the works of Ana Mendieta and Francis Bacon, this series reinvents childhood memories, skilfully blending them with fragments of vanitas and memento mori.

Exploring dental care and trauma, but also pleasure and emancipation, it transforms these themes into scenarios that are both playful and subtly provocative.

Like a child’s game, “Odontophilia” naively invites us to deconstruct social codes and free ourselves from convention, while keeping the smile on our faces.
