9 Impossibly Small Sweaters

Sylvia Kind

9 Impossibly Small Sweaters
2007

In this series of small hand-knit and densely felted sweaters, Kind plays with the idea of limitations and distortions. Like these sweaters – impossibly small, distorted, and unwearable – we live together within varying constraints that both limit and invite negotiation. The individual sweaters were created with holes, openings, long necks, extra arms and other unexpected constructions.

Medium: buttons, wool, zippers
