This was another pop-up gallery in Gastown that I stumbled upon. Sola is the artist and she does these huge tapestries of each Olympic city. The pieces are about 10 feet by 6 feet and are woven with wool from vintage knit sweaters etc. She begins the tapestry of the Olympic city when it is announce and travels to each Olympic city to live the Olympics and show her piece in progress. Each piece then takes, you guessed it, TWO YEARS.
