This world of colorful patterns and quotes was created by artist Agata Oleksiak, more commonly known as Olek, out of yarn and a crochet hook from the dollar store. This yarn bombing started in her apartment, covering everything from her teapot, to a striped tea cozy for her TV. During her show at Christopher Henry Gallery she often stayed the night, sleeping in the installation, her reason for this being she just wanted to sleep in her own bed which was now part of the exhibit. This coming year an installation moves into the Smithsonian.
