Bound to move shoes

The shoes are a performative element for aerial acrobatics. The shoes can be used for walking and when attached to a rope they can be hung in the air when the whole body is loose and the feet are bound. There is a game of controlling the movement of the legs when it is possible to set them to a certain point along the rope and release. The design speaks of the axis between suffering and devotion, movement and release. Through the accessory, the user discovers new axes of movement that are born from the fact of being bound in a specific area of ​​the body.
