The camera sits below desk level, looking up at Anna’s feet as they slip in and out of blue open-toe mule heels. She wears a black dress with a blue belt, and her dark-painted toenails match the moody color palette as she dips her size 8 US (38 EU) feet with unconscious rhythm.
The under-desk angle captures the dipping from the most rewarding perspective. Her bare heel lifts out of the blue mule, the wrinkled sole emerging into view, and then she pushes back in. Sometimes she lets the shoe dangle from just her toes, the blue heel swinging gently while her dark toenails grip the front strap.
She browses her laptop while her feet operate independently below. The dipping is steady and almost meditative, one foot always partially out of its shoe while the other rests. Occasionally both feet come free at the same time, and she crosses her bare ankles beneath the desk, soles pressed against the cool floor.
A gold anklet on one foot catches the overhead light each time she lifts her heel from the shoe. Her arches are high, and when her foot is half out of the mule, the arch creates a visible gap between her sole and the shoe insole, a space that narrows and widens as she flexes.
The office setting with its wooden desk and chair keeps the scenario grounded in reality. At 5’5″ (165 cm), Anna sits with her knees at desk height, her feet dangling naturally. The blue heels are a bold color choice that makes her dark toes stand out even more, each dipping cycle a small moment of contrast between colored shoe and bare wrinkled sole.
