Helen Kirkum

Soleful: Sneaker Stories

In today's episode, Kish and Jason sit down with artist and designer Helen Kirkum. Helen is widely considered a pioneer within the hacked and deconstructed aesthetic within the sneaker industry, and makes it her mission to bring new life to and create custom pieces from used and thrown away sneakers. Through her practice, Helen challenges us to rethink the meaning of consumption and the way we interact with the products we own.
