  Shoelace Exchange is a multi-layered project about the lost art of shoemaking, arts economy, and local flora. It is a play on "getting by on a shoestring". One hundred fifty shoelaces were hand died with local "weeds". Each lace was wrapped with paper containing an interview with a local shoe repair merchant or maker and a description of the flora used to die the lace. | |
