Shoelace Gardens

'Field' by Dominic Wilcox Consists of 500 Terra Plana Shoes

'Field' by Dominic Wilcox is being exhibited at the 2010 Milan Furniture Fair. 'Field' is an eco art piece that symbolizes the connection between material consumption and the nature. Dominic used 500 eco-friendly Terra Plana shoes for the installation, lacing them up with green, growing shoelaces like budding plants in a field.

In this piece, Terra Plana shoes represent the Earth, and the green shoelaces represent the plants that grow on Earth. See more shots of 'Field' by Dominic Wilcox above.
