Over the peak is the result of a clash between the wild and unpredictable natural world and the technical urbanism of city life. The myth of the Dahu was a major influence. This is a legendary creature from the Swiss Alps, who is an animal similar to a mountain goat, but with legs of different lengths to fit the mountain’s side. This enables the creature to walk upright on the slopes of the mountains in one direction only. For my collection, this myth functions as an alternative view on footwear - as a way to think about footwear and the foot differently to the norm.
