Glorious (Ceramic) Shoes, Part 2


Feet of Clay


Participants in a show Juried Exhibition in Nordstrom’s Downtown Seattle store for NCECA 2012 were asked to create ceramic scuptures in the form of shoes or accessories.  The scultpure had to fit into a standard size shoe box. 

"Feet of Clay references fatal flaws or secrets; unexpected vulnerable points in a hero or admired 
person. There is room for interpretation, but the artist might reveal a secret about the wearer of the shoes or accessories. One does not need to make shoes to be considered for this show, we are more interested in the 
idea of fatal, hidden flaws, “feet of clay”.
