Gary Jacketti

Alright it is past 4:00 pm I don't think Jacketti is going to give us a blog topic. So for this blog I am choosing to do it on our favorite ceramics professor Gary Jacketti. I think he is a suiting topic considering he has taught us a lot about ceramics throughout he semester and tolerated our "satisfactory" work.
This is one of Gary Jacketti's sculptures which is displayed at West Point Military Academy. The statue is meant to represent kids who are separated from their parents due to them joining the military. I have no idea how he made it (maybe slab), but I am sure it took a long time to make. I think the sculpture has a beautiful meaning because being a psychology major I know it is hard on children who are separated from their main caregivers. Nice work Jacketti!
