Shoes Masking Tape

Final Shoes

Made three layers of rolled up tape

Made the patterning of the bottom of the shoes using a scan of the bottom of the shoes and tracing over it onto a slab of layered tape

Prototype Shoe made of paper

Using a pair of shoes we made a pair of identical shoes out of masking tape.It was a challenge creating something 3-dimensional using a material which is flat. It is much more challenging than using something such as clay. I created my shoes with many layers of tape. By putting the shoe together in sections I found the process to be easier.
