Photo essay: An explosion of yarn

A yarn bombing of the campus ended in the bull statue acquiring a sweater while the trees lining the Grand Staircase received tree collars. The yarn bombing leads up to the Art Hill where the exhibit, Domestic Vandal is on display in the Art Gallery until Dec. 16.

Artists Brian and Christy created the exhibit as an extension of their street art.

Inspired by the absurdity of the exhibit the Chambers said they hope their bull sweater will bring laughter to the campus.

Bull sweater: The Brahma Bull statue at Pierce College in Woodland Hills, Calif., was fitted with a sweater by Christy Chambers and the Los Angeles Yarn Collective on Saturday, Nov. 5.
