sewn on at night, this yarn bomb [knitted street art] was designed for and put on the bike rack outside the IGA supermarket ,York,Western Australia. Much to the amusement of diners at the York,hotel opposite. it lasted a week or so, and travelled up and down the bike rack,and attracted a lovely tag from another couple of artists, who got the idea.before being torn apart by a dog?, or very bored/angry?person. the gekko was salvaged to grace another work, another day.

great to hear other aussies are “doing it”, we have no public art in York, and the shire are not receptive, so its “do it anyway”!
