London-based-fine artist and fashion designer, INSA, was one of famous six artists asked by Tate Britain arcade to produce a response to a modern show by artist Chris Ofili (New Yorker may consider him from his paintings, “The Holy Virgin Mary,” which used elephant dung as a substance and which then mayor Rudy Guiliani strived to have excluded from a Brooklyn Museum show). INSA responded with the 10-inch (!!) elephant-dung heels featured here. According to the press release, “INSA repeated the path of Chris Ofili completed over 15 years ago and supplied dung from the same family of elephants that produced the dung used in Chris’s well-known paintings of the nineties.”
