" ... Colin Robinson, whose stunning shoe and boot images should grace the wall of any art-loving fetishist"
Elizabeth Coldwell, Editor Frm magazine
The first two images below were reproduced in Stiletto by Caroline Cox, published by Mitchell Beazley.
My images are in praise of high heeled shoes and explore their fascination for men and women alike. Divorced from their primary purpose, for some people high heeled shoes have artistic merit on their own account; they are objets trouvés, even Duchampian ready-mades. Allen Jones work is my inspiration.

Other people slip into blue jeans or something loose and comfortable when they get home, but I never do. At home I am in high heels.

What's more, if you wear stilettoes [sic] you tend to think of yourself a work of art; they force you to spend all your time looking at yourself and at other people looking at you, leaving no time to think about the world. It should never be forgotten that not a single Greek philosopher ever wore stilettoes.
