Sebastian Errazuriz has no fear of sharing his thoughts and beliefs, whether they’re translated through bike lane performance art or other shocking surfaces. To put it plainly, the designer is mighty outspoken—and that’s why we always love the work he brings to the table. This time, Errazuriz is back with another series worthy of a double-take: “12 Shoes for 12 Lovers.”

Errazuriz is working with shoe brand Melissa (yes, the name behind the jelly slip-ons we all used to love) to create the 3D printed sculptures. The exhibit will be on display December 6th through January 6th at the Melissa pop-up shop in Miami. Each shoe design is accompanied by an anecdote (and a few NSFW personal photos) featuring an ex-girlfriend that unofficially—and pretty harshly, in some instances—describes the relationship between her and the shoe design. Some of the series’ highlights so far: “Gold Digger,” a beautiful and very expensive looking gold heel; “Ice Queen,” a chilling display of icicle heels; and “Cry Baby,” a splash of spilled milk turned avant garde footwear.
