Skewville: When Dogs Fly

Skewville has been producing editions of silkscreen/stencil tennis shoes on wood for almost ten years. Thousands of their printed kicks have been hung on powerlines in cities all over the world. While urban legend deems it a signal of drug activity, in this case the sneakers are a stylized symbol of street culture. Logo-like in their design, Skewville takes this powerline phenomenon, reprocesses it, and serves it back as art- with the skies of the city serving as gallery. Their project website, whendogsfly, has tons of great images of their prints on public display as well as production shots.
