Abyss

Category: Footwear

Competitions: UK, International

The project "Abyss" represents a deep and seemingly bottomless pit, often used metaphorically to describe profound emotional or mental states of darkness, despair, or hopelessness. The inspiration behind this theme is the belief that the human psyche shares similarities with the concept of an abyss, with individuals possessing hidden depths of darkness and melancholy despite their outward appearances. The contradictory nature of the theme arises from the understanding that people who experience darkness desire to overcome it and possess the inherent strength to do so.
