Known for integrating humans, parts of and whole, into his sculptures, Thomas Keeley made this amazing toothbrush. It shows people in line, making it look like little people can clean your teeth better than toothbrush bristles can.
Other pieces include a hair brush with fingers and a camera featuring an eye ball.
Keeley really does excel in bringing inanimate objects such as the bat chair to life. Even though the modifications are simple, the designs are very effective indeed.
