Maeve's take on the theme of feet goes beyond the self-portrait to encompass shoes and others' feet -- here, those of her mother Emily. The encroachment of the foot on the corner of the frame subtly grounds this otherwise personal image, and some have suggested that in this particular image, the foot moving towards the shoes symbolizes Maeve's own obsession with the putting on of shoes (or, as she endearlingly labels them, "shva!").
