Gracias a Pinterest hace unos meses descubrí a London Kaye, una artista callejera de Brooklyn conocida por sus obras de "yarn bombing" en lugares públicos de Nueva York, Venice Beach, Roma y Ciudad de México.
Me llamó mucho la atención su trabajo porque sus creaciones son bastante grandes y destacan por su colorido pero además normalmente incluyen algún mensaje ingenioso que las hace únicas.
Algo que me parece digno de admirar es que hace todo ella sola. Creo que es un trabajo enorme para una sola persona pero al mismo tiempo me puedo imaginar lo emocionante y divertido que tiene que ser.
También ha hecho campañas para marcas como Gap, Red Valentino o Starbucks y me encanta porque significa que ha conseguido convertir su pasión en una forma de ganarse la vida.
¿No os dan ganas de coger vuestras agujas de ganchillo y "bombardearlo" todo?
Thanks to Pinterest a couple of months ago I discovered London Kaye, a street artist from Brooklyn who is known by her yarn bombing works in public places of New York, Venice Beach, Rome and Mexico City.
I was very surprised by her work as her creations are quite big and they stand out by their colours but they also usually add playful messages which makes them unique.
Something that I find remarkable is that she makes everything by herself. I think it is a lot of work just for one person but at the same time I can imagine how exciting and entertaining it has to be.
She has also made campaigns for brands such as Gap, Red Valentino or Starbucks, and I love it because it means that she has succeeded in transforming her passion into a way of making a living.
Don't you feel like grabbing your crochet hooks and "bombing" everything?
