This object belongs to my Dad and was given to him as a gift from my Grandpa. It is made by an Italian Artist named Clet. This was originally a stop sign that was worked on to turn it into art. This piece comes from Florence Italy where my Dad's side of my family is from. This stop sign hangs in my apartment all the time and is a reminder of my identity and family culture. This sign is very important especially because my family is not very sentimental and they don’t keep many things related to our culture and identity. My Grandparents came to the US from Italy and also have a big passion for art which is why it is very special. If you are in Florence you might see some of Clets work on the street or in an art exhibit so having it in my house constantly reminds me of where my family comes from.
