40 Under 40 | Olek

If you happened to be in Toronto or Montreal and noticed that one of the landmarks that you walk by everyday was suddenly covered in crocheted yarn, it was probably the work of Agata Olek AKA Olek. This Polish born, New York based artist, has been covering objects in cities, and even people, around the world with brightly coloured yarn for quite some time now. You can check out her famous apartment installation titled, I Do Not Expect To Be A Mother But I Do Expect To Die Alone, an entirely crocheted apartment, at the 40 Under 40 exhibit in NY, until Feb. 3rd, 2013
