Spinning Crochet Tales with @oleknyc
For more of Olek’s crochet sculptures, follow @oleknyc on Instagram.
Polish crochet artist Agata Oleksiak known as Olek (@oleknyc) describes the origin story of her artwork as a fable. “A skein of yarn struck me in the head like magic dust from an undiscovered planet,” she says. “I looked up at the stars and picked up a crochet hook.” Agata wishes the same fantastic escape for her audience. “I want to lure them into an alternative reality where they can imagine and conjure their own fables.”
For Olek, her crochet work is “a never-ending journey, embellished with emotions, memories, experiences, thoughts and insights.” She considers herself a sculptor and explains, “It’s about stretching the canvas to fit the vision.”
