Fashioning the Body: Versions of the Citizen, the Self, and the Subject

    Shoe Basket was born August 2001 at a basket factory. She was one of thousands of siblings born from this factory. After completing her time at Ikea store, she was adopted by Michelle Whittaker and moved to Olympia, WA. Her first job was holding and storing toys for Sheba Dog. 2002-2006. She was fond of this job and enjoyed her contents very much, but was thrilled when she was promoted to shoe holder in late 2006. The new position allowed her a beautiful location by the front door and contact with many people. Sometimes she was so full of shoes that she would spill over. She was used most frequently by Michelle Whittaker's daughter, Melissa. Shoe Basket Passed on January 3rd, 2009. Cause of death was braking due to being stepped on. She is barried in the Hawks Prairie Landfill and is survived by her shoes that called her home for so long. They think of her fondly, saying, "She was a good basket, she held things well."
