Crochet Art in Harlem

This is kind of, sort of a post for NeedleworkMonday hosted by @crosheille

Why Kind of, sort off?i

Well I am sure the idea behind this tag is for people to post needlework that they have done, but this was some crochet art I came across when walking through Harlem one morning so decided it may be my one chance to enter this tag/challenge

Its quite a big piece of crocheted art on the fence around a park

The funny thing is I saw this mentioned on the NYC arts in the park website and decided to go check it out but I for some reason thought it was at a totally different location and walked about 20 blocks from the train station to where I thought it was and could not find it, when I checked again I realized it was only about 3 blocks from the train station so I went and got these shots the next day.

Now this last shot is on another corner of the fence in the same area and is not needlework but I thought I would include it with this post, its a bit hard to read from this shot but it says Eat Me which is the title of the piece and is by Capucine Bourcart,
It is made up of photo-printed aluminum square tiles and is to inspire people to make healthy food choices
