Marina Dempster was born in Mexico, to British and French parents and is based in Toronto, Canada. She sees her art as contemporary translation of the pre-Columbian Huichol art of “transformational yarn painting”. Preparing a form with a new skin of bees’ wax and pine-resin (traditionally called cera de campeche), which is then meticulously embedded with yarns or beads with the pressure of the fingertips and other improvised tools.

The result is a breath taking shoe, among others, witch can be viewed from two perspectives: a piece of art and an amazing artistic shoe.

I found these lovely photos on DeviantArt and I strated browsing through the gallery. The artist is Winter and Wolf and the photos speaks for themselvs. I let you enjoy the ones I love the most.
