Footwear Theatre, 2023; Alison Pyrke, Melbourne
Captured on Kodak Portra
A series of toiles created by the genius that is Alison Pyrke

Commissioned by Alison Pyrke for French editorial 90antiope, 'Footwear Theatre' a series of footwear caricatures born of traditional signifiers and reconfigured for performance. This troupe of digressive, flamboyant, and comedic shoes will promenade the theatre hall amplified by an instrumental soundscape performed by composer Jaslyn Robertson.

‘Footwear Theatre’ is a gift to footwear devotees. A nonsensical exploration into what footwear can be, when practicality is abandoned and amusement becomes the primary function.
