ABOUT: STAGE SHOE LAB EDITION 2022

The work in the exhibition varies widely: from investigations into the movements of the foot and body (Dirk Vaessen and Gabriel Giordano), newly modeled soles made from self-recycled material (Tessa Schoenmakers), extreme shoe translations that complete a fashion silhouette (Inez van Kessel and Niels van Boxtel), collection pieces that go out into the world as NFTs (Stijn Koks) to music videos for their own rap songs with homemade sets and costumes (Klokpack Prize / Oscar van der Laan)...

These young designers show a sometimes absurdist but certainly optimistic vision of "the shoe" and "the world of the future," a step beyond the world we really live in. The work also shows the MAAKLAB way of thinking: exploring with an open mind how a shoe is made ... what a shoe means in this day and age ... how a shoe can be presented ...
