This shoe represents the time circle between the past and the future and its impact on humans to accepting the void, defects and the imperfections and its effect on him.Starting with the material (leather), it is the personification of the human being, it’s a substance that forms and changes with time,and it’s impact appears on it through the technology used in construction, which is the continuous moisturizing and drying for each layer connected one on top of the other, each layer tells a story and experiment. The deep wound in the middle is the defining moment between the past and the future
