Unattainable is a concept sneaker store, marrying principles of ornamental Chinese gardens with the aesthetic of a set of acrylic nails worn by the artist earlier this year. This retail fantasy promotes pure desire in a candy-coloured saturation of crystalline fluid forms. The impossible-to-wear sugar shoes are the epitome of superfluous luxury lacquered with sickening taste.
