Sculptural suede and leather ‘Janus-faced’ platform shoe with springclosure closure, René van den Berg, 2025
Janus represents duality: beginning and end, future and past, two faces. A shoe with two completely different sides embodies that idea. By reversing Janus into Sunaj, you’re not only shifting perspective, but also the direction of time or perception itself.
The Sun in Sunaj refers to illumination and perspective: what becomes visible when something turns like the Earth in relation to the sun or the shoe in your hand.
