"STITCHES TO RECOVERY"
Dianaya with dear friend and artist Pablo Carreño, a big hearted and trouble maker fellow with a long and prolific career. Although Dianaya works in a very private and secluded environment she very sporadically visits Pablo's studio to work simultaneously next to the truly talented, entering a world that few can experience.

CONCEPT BEHIND combining 3 elements:
1 -Painting: Bull
2 -Tassels (red): tassels are a classic element in some shoes and by incorporating them to the bull's back they add meaning to the composition (blood/harm) while integrating the painting to the shoe.
3 -Del Toro's signature red band at the back of the shoe: the red band becomes symbolic of prohibition when brought to the front at a diagonal angle and placed across the bull.
The message behind this composition is a reflection of the artist's stance on not only bullfights, but cruelty to animals in general. And that was the source of inspiration.
