Treeroots

Amber Myla

Part of the graduation collection ‘Roots’, 2021.

Inspired by tree roots. I looked at how we as humans can stand firmly in our shoes. Then I shaped this by doing the same thing that trees do, which is let roots go from our feet into the ground.

Material: Mold made with the help of René van den Berg Academy. By means of carbon fiber and resin in the base there is a very strong connection. This makes it possible to actually walk in the shoes.the shaft is made of brown and beige cow leather.
