Of a Different Yarn
|
| Kelly Lim, a crochet artist from Singapore, takes the traditional craft with hook and yarn to new heights. Having learned to crochet when she was seven years old, her art extends from her Creatures, a series of soft sculptures, to large scale installations which add unexpected visual impact to urban spaces. Landscapes, which she launched in 2019, explores textures from nature. A visit to Japan inspired her to make art that people can touch. With the goal to change people’s perspective on art, realizing that art is not only seen in galleries, she asserts that, "Every piece of work has a bit of my soul in it." |
