Birch plywood, cherry, aluminum, steel, Plexiglas, drywall. 7 ft x 5 ft x 8 ft.  
 
  This piece is built into the wall like a science-museum diorama, with clear acrylic separating the interior from the viewer. During the "opening" of the show, its operator repeatedly squeezed hand levers which caused curved aluminum "lip-pullers" to expose his teeth.

Photographs: Douglass Foster Operator: Frank Pichel
