Sole-searching

April 8th, 2007 by levende

Even a seemingly discreet shoe can potentially hide otherworldly beauty. Overwhelming waves beyond belief, oceanic beauty right there under one’s foot.

    Oh wauw - what a footprint to share with world and the people following ones path. And I really like the intertextuality that binds this post together with the former post on “Walking on the waves”:

    Yes indeed. Prints, trails, traces.
    Clues to follow to take a look into the past. Paths to follow to enter the future.

    And don’t you think it’s amazing that one cannot exactly know another person’s potential to leave marks? It isn’t always visible from the outside exactly how much of a wave that rises inside a person.

    I wonder if the shoe is Japanese too…

    Yup, it is Japanese (my sister just got back from Japan where she bought it). And of course, yes, it has got to be an interpretation of Hokusai’s wood-block wave print, only that the rubber sole has surfer dudes on it, not fishermen lost at sea.
