< > Kate Jenkins - Kate's Cafe: 6 June – 27 June 2009 AT Charlotte Street, London
For three weeks in June the Charlotte Street Gallery will be transformed into Kate’s Café, a fantasy café brimming with beautifully knitted food artworks. Feast your eyes on meticulously re-created wool-worked fish and chips, fried breakfasts on knitted plates, with knitted tomato ketchup bottles and mustard pots. Cake stands will be delicately stacked with perfectly knitted cakes and crocheted sugar-coated mini doughnuts. Tea will be served in knitted cups and saucers.
Kate Jenkins is a knitting genius: a true artist and a true original. She launched her fashion label Cardigan in 2003, having previously worked for the likes of Marc Jacobs, Missoni and Donna Karan. This is her first solo art show.
Come to Kate's Café: the place to be - for tea, sympathy, wit, innovation, wool and artistic brilliance.
