shoes.

This is an interesting design, I like the idea of combining feet and shoes in a transform way, it look very photorealistic. Besides the creative part of this pair of feet-shoes, they also make me think of a story behind.

People wear shoes when walking, this habit has been continuing until today since the civilizations. The shoe manufacturing has growing larger and larger. For instance, when you walk into a shoe store, you will probably brows more then hundred of shoes. Women love high hills for their dressing style, men take the sinning Leathers as their business essentials; and, there are also shoes for sports, for children…etc. although there is fashion needed, but if we think about it deeply and ask ourselves, do we really need that many shoes? Maybe the answer will be varying, but at least, some people would say “we don’t.” In addition, as the shoe manufactories found the value of their loyal costumers, there are many super expensive shoes begin to put on the market. I do not think this is a good idea to mark a pair of shoe with a lot zeros on the price tag because over all, the purpose of shoe is just for walking.

This design has leaded me back to the original purpose of shoes, when I see the naked human feet; I discovered that shoes are just a adding to our life, we walk with our feet but shoes. If we can really get rid of the complexity and the slicks，we will back to the origin and nature.

I also learned that when an object is being spoiled too much, it will lose its original function and purpose; instead, it would have some negative impacts to out life.
