🥿 The Meaning Behind Shoes Hanging on Power Lines – What Does It Really Mean? ⚡🧵

For some artists, hanging shoes is creative expression — turning everyday items into public art.

Others see it as modern folklore — a mysterious habit passed through generations.

🎨 Whatever the reason, it’s now part of the visual story of city life.

🧪 How Do the Shoes Get Up There?

Most often, people:

  • Tie the shoelaces together and toss them over the wire

  • Use a weighted string or fishing line

  • Or throw one shoe at a time and tie them midair (a tricky move!)

Sometimes, workers remove them during maintenance — but new pairs always seem to appear.
