Trying to find new ways of seeing the world -both objects and beings (and their relations)- is what artists do. The assignment of finding a 100 different ways of “interpretating” an object helped me to force myself out of a comfort zone and think ‘out of the box’.
I decided to use a bright pink high heel because I was supposed to choose something I would not be carrying normally. Actually, I think no one would actually carry this with themselves all day, because this shoe is just too much for a daily use. They are unique, chic, smart designed, very feminine, and yet they can still be used by a guy -not necessarily as a shoe, as it is appreciable in the following pictures.
I am amazed by the amount of possible uses a high heel can have, not only fictional -like one photo I took using it as a phone- but completely functional and useful -like the table one.
The following images are the TOP 10 photos of 100 taken. I chose them because of their aesthetics and also because of the contrast between some very functional solutions and some very fictional.

hot cup holder
hammer
bookend

pencil
dumbbells
violin
Pool “ball”
Table legs (this improvised table actually stayed there for a couple of days)
