Iron Skulls


Ben Marcacci submitted this piece. He said "I'm a contractor in Afghanistan. I work on my skulls on my lunch. Here's one. Its 100% scrap iron,with razor wire roses."





This piece in it's setting speaks to how dangerous it is being in Afghanistan. Against a background of barbed wire, military buildings, sand, and helicopters, it stands as a warning to new entries and memorial to those who have died in this dangerous pursuit. The cross in it's self is beautifully made. Here's hoping that one day, they will all get to come home.
