It is also always important for Carolin Hozlhuber to deliver a message with her work and to create awareness of certain problems/situations that need to be changed and not ignored by our society.

EQUALITY
To empower her statement Carolin Holzhuber created a footwear piece that also delivers this message.

But we should respect, love and help each other to become a society where we are equal and can watch into each other’s eyes on the same level.
