CULTURAL OLYMPIAD GLOBAL FOOTPRINT

 

 

We have received a commission to realise ambitious new shoe prototypes for an installation piece 'Footfall' which is informed by the stories, materials, technology/engineering and buildings of Northamptonshire’s shoe and boot industry, both past and present, to celebrate the London 2012 Games and mark its moment in UK history.

We will be  documenting our research and design process, producing appropriate concept drawings, photographs, digital film and material samples for exhibition and a presentation talk to local UoN students alongside the final installation which will be exhibited at Northampton Museum and Art Gallery’s new ‘Shoe Lounge’ and at the University of Northampton.
