Kate Jenkins | The Art Of Love Bakery At Harbour City
Not Sponsored: If you like knitting, crocheting, food, art or ANY combination of them, you will LOVE this post! I follow Harbour City on Instagram (it's a premier shopping mall in Hong Kong) and saw this amazing exhibit called The Art Of Love Bakery. Displayed were loaves of bread, hot cross buns, gingerbread men, croissants, bagels, pretzels, pies, cakes and tarts ... ok, I'll stop there! HaHaHa Delicious Huh? Just looking at everything made me hungry! Well these marvelous creations are FOOD INSPIRED textile art! The artist is Kate Jenkins. She is from the UK. She learned to knit and crochet when she was eight years old. She has a BA in Fashion & Textiles from the University of Brighton. She has worked with fashion labels from Missoni, Donna Karan, Ralph Lauren etc. She creates these 3D pieces using wool rather than painting or drawing. Her creations are absolutely amazing. Below are some pictures from the Harbour City Exhibition. I've also included two videos of her work as well. Her artwork is available for purchase on her website.
