Shoe of Shoes by Victoria Fuller

The statue 'Shoe of Shoes' is made of all individual aluminum cast stilettos and then reassembled to make the one large heel. In this way it resembles other large statues that you might see in public parks or university campuses but it also looks like the type of shoe the tin woman would pick up for a night on the town - silver and shinny.

Food for thought: Why did V. Fuller use aluminum casting on all of the heels instead of leaving them as individual representation of the person who may have purchased them and the designers who choose to make them different?
