The Tooth Fairy's Lost Luggage
The Tooth Fairy- A creature nobody has actually seen. Someone who sneaks into children's bedrooms at night to conduct a business transaction while kids are asleep. A being whose motivations are unclear, and whose morals and ethics are rarely questioned. A sinister night-stalker who can help herself to the teeth under a child's pillow, as well as the teeth in the child's head! What's to stop her?
Anyone who travels knows this to be true... Eventually the airline WILL lose your luggage. It happens to the best of us. And when the luggage goes unclaimed, it is sold at auction to the highest bidder.
Tooth Fairy, if you're out there, you can have it back.
(Yes, those are REAL human teeth in the bottom right corner.)

Consumption
"Consumption" is made from a plastic model skull salvaged from the home of a deceased hoarder, wrapped with several layers of plastic grocery bags.
Traditionally, a "worry stone" is a small polished stone held between the thumb and index finger, and rubbed with the thumb in an attempt to alleviate stress.
Over the course of several weeks, I have rubbed these erasers into various states of nothingness. The smallest one has been around the longest, then the longer rounded one, then the squared-off longer one. The one that looks new is pretty much un-rubbed, but is included in the set.
The two middle erasers have been rubbed between my thumb and index finger until a hole wore through the center. They have a very pleasing feel to them, as they have been formed by hand, and without the use of tools.
This is the physical representation of countless hours of rubbing, and minuscule amounts of stress relief.
