Cassette Tape Crochet

Unconsumption points us to artist, Jennifer Cantwell, who creates cool crochet doilies from old cassette tape.

This piece of work is made as a response to the feelings I get when I see a piece of work that’s taken many hours and has now been discarded or an album thats been listened to over and over again and now replaced with newer technology, or an old library book stamped many times and now on a thrift shop shelf. I think about the many times that object was handled during its making/listening/reading and about the thoughts and the feelings, hopes and aspirations experienced during that time by the anonymous owner/maker.
