Shoe Grogger (The Noisemaker)

András Böröcz, American, b. Hungary, 1956

2002

Carved walnut

In some Jewish communities, people write Haman’s name on the soles of their shoes in order to stamp it out whenever it is mentioned. Böröcz’s mechanical shoe-stomping apparatus makes the requisite noise when the handle is cranked.
