Sneaker 10: Barbed Words

BARBED WORDS

Clay: Concrete Clay

Sticks and stones? Well, words can hurt.

Some words stay with you long after they were spoken.

These sharp clay points weave, pierce and surround the shoe.

As a child, words affected my confidence and self-esteem.

As an adult, I realised I had sometimes used the same words that hurt me to hurt others.

We can inherit patterns without having to repeat them.

Sometimes hurt people, hurt people.
