This rigid, sharply lined chair reflects the structure and discipline of military life. Poised on its front
legs, it leans forward—symbolizing momentum and the courage to move beyond that life. The
artist’s own dog tags, a personal relic of service and identity, dangle from the back while a pair of
combat boots positioned mid-stride, frozen in the act of taking that first step.
