Art sometimes flirts with fashion.
Fashion, however, is often more overt in her advances towards art.
Such was the case with these Prada heels from FW08.
I had saved this image for my archives ages ago, but couldn’t think of why I was so obsessed with these shoes.
I don’t generally prefer Prada or have a soft spot for chunky, clunky shoes.
Then I realized that they emulate one of my favourite pieces of sculpture – futurist Umberto Boccioni’s Unique Forms of Continuity in Space.
The dynamic flow of movement is captured in both objects so eloquently.
The Boccioni satiates my soul, however, like only art can.
