Don’t like your current home or apartment? Then crochet yourself a new one!
New York artist Agata Oleksiak has crocheted fitted coverings for EVERY object in her “apartment”, including the real (but inoperable) sink, telephone, tv, walls and the clawfoot tub and hairdryer I’m demoing above. She incorporates text messages into her wall hangings, transforming ephemeral moments into the tangible.
Every piece is for sale or you can buy the apartment in its entirety. Colourful, warm and durable – unless you have cats.
On exhibition at the Christopher Henry Street Gallery in the Nolita neighbourhood, New York City.
