Left. Left. Left. Right, Left.

Left. Left. Left. Right, Left. is a project that I am currently working on in commemoration to the soldiers who have fallen during Operation Iraqi Freedom and Operation Enduring Freedom.
I am a U.S. Army Veteran and Senior at North Central College in Naperville, Illinois.

I am currently working towards my B.A. in Studio Art and at the end of the year I wish to present this piece as part of our Senior Art Show. I would like to reach out to as many people as I can. I am asking those of you who have lost a relative or friend in OIF / OEF and wish to commemorate their service as part of my installation to please fill out the form below.

My goal is to make as many Porcelain Boots as I possibly can before my Senior Art Show. The tentative date for this show is mid-May to early June 2012. I will place a single dog tag on each boot with the soldier’s information that you provide. I hope that this piece will bring honor and remembrance to our fallen friends and family.

Thank you,
~Giuseppe

Artist’s boots stand for memories of fallen GIs
