Stop by the Artist Hall to see the most fabulous stilett”O”s you’ve ever seen! Houston artist and woodworker, Omar Angel Perez, has created impossibly sexy, sky-high platform shoes from turned wood and accents such as band saw blades, snakeskin, leather, feathers and Swarovski crystals. His playful pieces explore the sadistic world of any fashionista’s shoe fetish. Perez says, “As an expression of appreciation, I offer my gratitude to all women who endure the torture of wearing such heels. Your sacrifice does not go unnoticed.” Shoe and woodworking lovers alike will swoon.
