Tracey Neuls' Shoes - A Sculptural Artwork

Photography: Laura Daza

Tracey Neuls is a contemporary shoe designer with a shop located in the heart of Shoreditch, in the trendy Redchurch Street. A colourful graffiti facade makes it appealing to pedestrians passing by the shop window, which is characterized by an installation of hanging shoes in a minimalistic style. Each shoe is thought as a sculptural artwork; a unique piece that resembles textures, colours and crafts; and a storyteller, which reflects concepts and ideas she has encountered on her daily journeys.
