About The Artwork

I made a collection of conceptual pieces of footwear that evolve into their final state through a transformation with temperature. Bees wax is used to create a mark on the leather therefore making unique and irreplaceable pieces. The result is a limited edition collection of truly unique shoes based around discovering whats underneath, about development and transformation and how the environment is a tool for those transformations. I explore the link between nature and luxury, the natural process of making honey and its vital importance to humanity, using natural materials as the means but also the medium of the design, realizing part of it with natural raw beeswax. I have based my collection on transformations and my work explores this kind of personalization, but instead of using new technologies I do it through reconnecting to the natural processes in order to look for beauty in randomness. Casted natural honeycomb in brass act as heel connections whilst the natural wax stains the fabric in an uncontrolled but yet beautiful way, at the same time almost destroying the hand made footwear underneath. Details about the objects: -Part of a 5 pair collection. -Intended to be used as a decorative object and not to be worn. -Materials are affected by high temperatures. -Made entirely by hand. -Materials: Brass, wood, leather and beeswax. -Materials are partly shrank, scratched, torn, burned and stained due to the creative process of manufacturing. -Zippers are not in use due to the wax application. -Heavy object due to the amount of metal used to make it. Handle with care.
