    And it started with the usual daily walk on the wet streets of the city! Then - a lasting impression on Allen produced scattered along the street brochures, sop of the rain. Imprinted in them traces of hundreds of shoes and boots, in combination with the color and pattern booklets themselves, to create unique and whimsical shapes. Impressed, he began to photograph these works of passers-by. And in his soul was born the desire to meet with a paper casting a closer look.

    About the casting Allen Eckman says, "Casting - this is the easiest part of our work. On the way out, we get a rough blank that has nothing to do with the finished sculpture.
