Mary Lou Pavlovic by Evan Orensten
Originally inspired by her reaction to the UK punk culture of the 1980s, Australian artist Mary Lou Pavlovic created a "Facist" series covering work boots in what looks like multicolored candy decor. She has since gone on to realize ballet shoes on knife pointes, jewel-encrusted weapons, and most recently she teamed up with Pol Oxygen to create a mosaic-covered Mini shown at the Milan Design Show (pictured above).
