This is deffinetively one hell of a mistery!!! “shoefiti”, as this practice is conceptualized, is extending to all over the world!
I am from Bogotá, Colombia, and right now I’m writting about shoes hanging from cables. Your website is a great refference.
In my city the situation is very simmilar to what I’ve read in your web. There’s a specific place where whoes ar hanged by the soccer team leader of a neighborhood. The leader of the team that loses the match has to throw his old shoes to the cables, it is like a collection of defeats.
And there’s also another place, near neighborhoods placed in downtown of Bogotá. And it’s funny cause they have only a pair, maybe two, of shoes hanging, but most of the objects floating are different appliances: Cds, doolls, pompoms, a dictionary (or a type of book, scissors and a stuffed animal, among others. Sometime soon i’ll be uploading some pictures.
