Check out this giant shoe installation from Petros Chrisostomou. I enjoy the giant shoes as much as I love shoes in general.
The artist, Petros Chrisostomo, also creates GIANT cheese, cakes, corsets and eggs. Brilliant.
She is based in London and graduated 2008 with a MA Fine Art from Royal Academy Schools. In her artists statement Petros states that, "This 'still life' photography, highlights the qualities in the objects that I would like to pronounce, and in most cases, by juxtaposing them with particular scenarios, subverts our expectations towards them."
