Wander x Wonder (2021)
Wander X Wonder began as an advice Sheena received before venturing on her journey to the Netherlands to complete her Masters. Her work charts her journey contemplating questions about her role as an educator in the last decade. Framed through nine shoes, these questions show her process of reflexivity through the shoes she wandered with in her journey. With influences from “Wunderkammer”(translated: Cabinets of curiosities) she hopes to portray how her journey of an educator whilst filled with questions can also reflect a sense of marvel. She also chose to use shoes as an imagery because she observed how teachers like herself often keep many shoes under their tables. From the classroom to the meeting room and to staffroom, each shoe has an important purpose and perhaps story to tell.
Through the different shoes she has worn in the last decade, she invites the viewer to step into her shoes metaphorically and join her in contemplating the desires, hopes and fears of an educator.
