Anastasia Radevich Amazing Shoes Collection 2012

The designer’s latest collection provides breath-taking designs while warning us about the imminent dangers the current path of thinking will have on the future of humanity. The designer briefly explained the thought process behind the newest collection: “The challenge was to reflect on an abstract concept in the shapes and details of a shoe. I then developed the details of the piece and selected the materials and experimented with texture and the appearance. I thought of the strength of design and how it had to support the message AND convey the mystery to draw the viewer to the shoe piece. So I reinforced that message with nontraditional methods of sculpting of components of the shoes.”The collection has three parts representing the past, the present and the possible future should we go on the current path. “The ‘Past’ will walk you through civilizations that, despite all technological advancements, were doomed to vanish. They have been submerged beneath the seas, after the sea level rose and flooded lands that have been host to the humans before. The shoe pieces have textures reminiscent to those brought up from the depth of the oceans and aesthetics of those civilizations. The constructions of shoes is sculpted from metal and then galvanized and rusted,” she explained.
