‘field’ at london, selfridges – shoe department

on display until september 15th at london’s selfridges is designer dominic wilcox‘s installation ‘field’ of green laces.

the project aims to breath life into the simple, inanimate shoe, making a connection with nature while referencing the lives of the absent owners. the shoe laces of seven hundred eco-friendly shoes rise up into the air as though growing towards the light creating a field of green on a bed of earth.

we previously featured ‘field’ when it was exhibited during london design week september 2009.
