Megan Hansen-Knarhoi

I came across Megan’s “flock” artwork in an interior-styled shot for Home NZ mag, and further in there was an artist profile on her; intrigued by her work I found her website and more recently her Facebook page.   Megan’s craft is wool and crochet, of which she is an artistic master, and largely uses this medium to question religion and faith, and does so in a very controversial manner in an x-rated exhibition named “Crotchtit” – you’ll have to visit her website to view (highly recommended).  I personally love religious iconography, vintage and modern, and applaud artists who offer a realist viewpoint on religion and faith in its modern context, and in general, communicate controversy and the reality, irony and contradictions of social conditions via an artistic medium.  Very clever.  DEEP LOVE.
