Remember 
16 x 18" 
 Ink on paper

I got the idea for this piece when I was in Germany over the summer. In an effort to remember the Holocaust there are small plaques called "Stolperstien" or Stumbles Stones, in front of houses where victims of the Holocaust lived. The plaque says the person's name and place he or she was taken. I am not Jewish or German, but I still felt like this was an important piece to make. All people should remember the Holocaust, we must always remember the horrific things that people have done to each other. Perhaps then, we can be more aware of our actions in the future.
