SHOE STATEMENT

Shoes are symbols of mobility and immobility depending on their functionality and design and can be symbols of status and gender. I have created shoes that play upon the fetish appeal of extravagant, high-heeled shoes. Constructed of Asian food wrappers, these "tasty" sculptural shoes almost appear edible. They also play with the class association of shoes for while they appear to be the heels of high society, they are a collage of humble materials that would find reuse and utility in the plantation culture of Hawaii's past
