Spot the QR Codes with Soleheaven & the Trainer Angel

Soleheaven QR codes are popping up in the UK, find and scan them to get exclusive images… Dale tells us more…

“They appear to be the work of a sneaker obsessed character known only as the ‘Trainer Angel’.

City skate parks and popular bars on the arts and music scene appear to have been visited
overnight by the Trainer Angel. The installations are numbered and each location has a shoe
positioned in impossible high up locations as a physical signature. The sneakers that have so far
been spotted range from Nike Air Max, Supra, Asics and ltd edition Vans.

Close to each location is a giant sized paste up that wouldn’t look out of place on the streets
of Paris or Barcelona. The design is a bold industrial graphic design with strong lines, featuring
between the wings of the body a giant digital QR code.

Scan the QR code with your mobile phone and you’re taken through to the home of the Trainer
Angel where you can view exclusive images and connect with the Trainer Angel directly using
social media.

Newcastle upon Tyne continues to establish itself as a creative and leading cultural city with a hive
of creative commerce and business bringing a different kind of spotlight on the famous Geordie
shores.

Dale Parr, of Soleheaven says: “We worked last year on an exhibition with 20 artists including Dan
Baldwin, INSA and Mr Jago in an exhibition in Shoreditch. Called Kicks N Canvas. I wanted to do
something this year that was a little closer to home and directly related to the business.”

So sneaker-heads, keep your eyes peeled…
