They yarn bombed a library/ community center near me. It was so cool at first, but it's been months out in the weather, no one has taken the pieces down, and now it just looks like the place is littered with yarn trash. :( I wish they would have it removed and start again or something.
YARN-BOMB!

ReplyDeleteSad thing about all this knitting stuff is: It looks good for a couple of weeks, and then it gets dirty and nobody cares.
ReplyDeleteIt's actually an ArtPrize entry. It's venue is Parliament - the Boutique.

ReplyDeleteI actually figured you were in EAV! That's East Atlanta Village for the uninitiated...

There are rules at ArtPrize about when the art has to come down so I wouldn't be surprised if this were all gone by mid-October.
