[description] => Part of the Collection 'The Manifestation Of Glee'
Giving form to the intangible
The Manifestation Of Glee, the name pretty much says it all. It can be referred to as and eye vitamin if you will, but The Manifestation Of Glee is not just some placebo effect. It truly works. It’s fun, happy, joyful, to be honest, it’s just good for you. It’s origins goes back to the bare essentials of the creative spirit. The conception of ever idea, where the first spark of creativity is ignited and leads to something beautiful and tangible. The goal is to capture this explosive, illusive moment of gleeful, giddiness, bottle it and share it with the happy masses.
The Manifestation Of Glee can be described as happy fashion for the serious fashion lover. This translates into a culmination of vivid colours and unpredictable patterns leading to an unexpected yet cheerful end result. Because of a interdisciplinary mix of Graphic elements, Typography, Illustration and fashion it is sure to tickle the most deeply buried funny bone.

[description] => This project is an exhibition of form and texture; investigating nature. Within this project it was my ambition to find a balance between nature and modern design; where the two concepts blend fluidly. I was inspired by the shapes of cliffs and terraced farming on mountains; by the rich world of textures in coral reefs; by the change of colour within the decay and erosion of the earth. The basic concept of life, the cycle of a seed growing into a plant whose fibers can be used to make natural fabrics, which in turn can be used to make sustainable footwear is beautiful and idealistic.
The final goal is the reduction of impact upon that which I find inspiration - nature. What is born from nature returns to it in the end. Hand crafted products grow old gracefully and take on a personality acquired by memories of its use. I wanted those products to be of a high quality, design and aesthetic value and to translate easily into the industry and a wide market.
In an effort to make a statement of how impressive and experimental sustainable footwear can be, I created the collection to express awareness and closeness between nature and time; a concept which strengthened my designs.
The realization that we as designers have responsibilities not only to the aesthetic world, but also to the ethical world is an essential foundation. With 2009 being the international year of natural fabrics, I found a perfect opportunity to attend debates and exhibitions concerning sustainable,renewable and recycled fabrics. I was introduced to fabrics of crab-shell, milk and other intriguing concepts. This experience made me to realize the unique beneficial characteristics of plant and animal fibers.
The idea of sustainability just made sense to me. In a world where 330 million pairs of shoes are thrown into land fills per year, I felt the need to make a product that would endure and to try to find a balance between fast and slow fashion. I embarked on a research which allowed me to explore many topics.
I was inspired by a piece by Heinrik Hakinssan in which he suspended trees by wire without root systems, to me displaying the power of nature. This impression began my adventure through 'Green Artists' and the intriguing concepts behind their work. Exploring further, I discovered Eco-Architects creating buildings which grew like living organisms. My curiosity led me to uncovered many exciting and innovative designers and researchers. From Bio Couture, to 3D printing, the idea that science and technology used to create a new world of intelligent fabrics was mesmerizing. Understanding the importance of collaborations with artisans, designers, scientists and technology opened up endless possibilities and opportunity.
Having started an apprenticeship with a shoemaker from June of 2008, this experience provided me with the insight, knowledge and understanding necessary to realize this project. It was a stimulating challenge sourcing and constructing a shoe with fabrics.
Living in San Frediano, an area of Florence rich with artisans, I seized the opportunity and asked a wood restorer to collaborate
with me on this experiment. I made the heels first in plasticine, then we sought a solution to carve to them light and strong woods. Local organic farmers and leather and textile manufacturers in Tuscany provided an interesting range of fabrics which complemented my designs.
My shoes are made with vegetable tanned leather, walnut wood heels, fabrics including caucciui covered organic cotton, linen, raffia, hemp, bamboo and cork to support the forms.
Fun ideas spring to mind with my collection, changing the seeds instead of shoes with the passing seasons. It is my hope that in their second life they will decay and grow as an art piece.

[description] => Missbibi oeuvre is inspired by the world of childhood and nostalgia; the arcadia lost that eventually all mankind searches for. Within this innocent beauty, the subversion of scale becomes a recurring figure and the visual object is often fetishised. So Missbibi's work both transforms and diverts the everyday life through its recreational approach and its meticulous attention to small details. In this formal world, the real and the imaginary intertwine. This relationship within the 'invisible' allows us to reclaim objects which our eyes can no longer see... These miniature jewelleries take their inspiration from miniature objects and toys in order to trnsform them into fine pieces of jewellery. Out of silver and silver gold plated these creations drive us into a sentimental journey often making forays into a Lilliputian wonderland.

[description] => Shoe Fleur: A Footwear Fantasy
'The book project Shoe Fleur: A Footwear Fantasy began with a picture of a leaf I had taken for a client,' says Michel. 'The leaf was turned upside down and I remember saying out loud to no one in particular, ‘that leaf looks like a shoe.’ And, after a move here and a twist there, I had created my first shoe fleur, appropriately named La Première.'
After La Première, Michel was hooked. Each morning for a year he went to the flower market at dawn to bring the freshest, most glorious blooms back to the studio. As the months passed, each shoe fleur emerged with a name and a story. “Every accessory became as unique as the flower or plant I used to make it,” says Tcherevkoff. With names such as Callous Lily, Fort Knox and Escargot each visual is a witty cultural quip.
With Diane von Furstenberg writing the Introduction to Shoe Fleur and Ferruccio Ferragamo writing the Preface, a launch evening at the Museum of Arts and Design, gallery exhibitions in New York and Paris, press coverage in magazines ranging from Elle to US Magazine, Michel has just been discovered as an important contemporary artist.
The images of Shoefleur are for sale in a limited signed edition of 25.

[description] => Vincent van Gogh (1853-1890)
Paris, Oil on canvas, 32.5 X 40.5 cm
In Parijs had Van Gogh meerdere malen schilderijen van werkmansschoenen gemaakt. In Saint-Rémy maakte hij dit paar leren klompen, de attributen van het boerenbestaan waar hij zich op het zuidelijke platteland weer mee bezig was gaan houden. Bovendien kende Van Gogh de kleine stillevens met klompen van de boerenschilder Millet, die hij zeer bewonderde. Voor Millet symboliseerden klompen de poëzie van het boerenleven.

[description] => Vincent van Gogh (1853-1890) Paris.
Oil on canvas, 1886, size 37,5 x 45,5 cm.
This painting of a pair of down-at-heel shoes prompts speculation on a variety of psychological questions. They have been seen as symbolizing Van Gogh’s difficult passage through life. A fellow student in Paris reported that Vincent bought these workman’s boots at a flea market, intending to use them in a still life. Finding them still a little too smart, however, he wore them on a long and rainy walk. Only then were they fit to be painted. Van Gogh made a number of still lives with old shoes. To him, as to several of his contemporaries, they may have been symbolic of the hard yet picturesque life of the laborer.
German philosopher Heidegger about this painting:
Artworks, Heidegger contends, are things, a definition that raises the question of the meaning of a "thing." As this concept is so broad, he narrows down the definition to "mere things," meaning inanimate objects. He then chooses to examine a pair of shoes painted by Van Gogh, looking to the work to establish a distinction between artwork and other "things." This was actually typical of Heidegger as he often chose to study shoes and shoe maker shops as an example for the analysis of a culture. Heidegger explains the viewer's responsibility to consider the variety of questions about the shoes, asking not only about form and matter—what are the shoes made of?—but bestowing the piece with life by asking of purpose—what are the shoes for?
