Vancouver artist Julie Morstad spins fairy tales infused with dream-like innocence and a touch of the macabre, a universe populated by animals, flowers, peculiar objects, and disembodied heads. Morstad's work has been shown in galleries, featured on the cover of Neko Case's album Fox Confessor Brings the Flood and developed into a line of patterned wallpapers with a distinctive nostalgic quality. Milk Teeth's universe has a sensibility reminiscent of Marcel Dzama's surreal drawings, Jeffre Eugenides' haunting novel The Virgin Suicides, and Peter Weir's classic film Picnic at Hanging Rock. Milk Teeth was one of the first books in D+Q's petit livre art book series, and quickly sold out.
