From ominous to wistful, the ubiquitous sight of shoes over a power-line inhabits
many roles in our collective imagination and urban mythology.
Cast in porcelain, every detail of the tattered shoes are preserved and frozen in time.
Overhead cables carry a charge to the laces that power lights within.
Shoes can be added, removed or repositioned along the cables as the owner sees fit.
This work will be installed at MADE during the Toronto International Design Festival 2011.
