Based on the ancient myth of -'VaginaDentata' across several cultures in which the
story goes such that some women were feared to have teeth in there vagina.
This myth was used to discourage adultery and intercourse with strange women.
In this concept the purpose is to create an object which is meant to raise questions on our existing social and cultural values.
The final concept - Dentata is a wearable device that has sharp tentacles deadly enough to hurt the attacker. It empowers the person wearing it and at the same time
generates fear in the mind of attacker.
The absurdity of this design points out to the fact that how helpless we are in protecting half of earth's population from this heinous crime.
