Looking back one year ago today when the “80th Anniversary of Liberation bronze medallion was casted! This gift was presented to the mayor of Domažlice Czech Republic to commemorate the 80th anniversary of liberation from German occupation during WW2. Back in my studio I knew In my mind this piece was not just another project or commission, it was a gift that had deep rooted meaning. I was asked to create this gift by .hero who is the grandson of the famous Two Rivers native Matt Konop who after months of fighting in Normandy and in the Battle of the Bulge led the Army’s 2nd infantry division into Domažlice Czechoslovakia and to liberate what was his own grandparents home town on May 5th 1945. Another big thanks to and to for helping make this project come to life!
