For those of us who follow this sort of thing Street Artist Olek has monopolized the category for D.I.Y. pink and purple camouflage crochet sculpture on the street.
More later on that tip, but right now we want to share with you a BSA sneak peek of “The End is Far” as Olek races to completely cover the interior exhibition space for tonights’ opening at Jonathan Levine.
Call it a show about candy colored empowerment. Call her a force to reckon with, and possibly adore. And if you do, champagne and chocolate-dipped strawberries will be accepted.
