Haegue Yang | Cup Cosies













Haegue Yang
Cup Cosies
Zurich, Switzerland: Parkett, 2011
70 cm x 10.5 cm.
Edition of 35 signed and numbered copies


Produced for the 89th issue of Parkett Magazine, these knitted yarn works were made in a variety of colours and patterns. Each purchaser received 100 plastic cups and a unique cosy. A ball of yarn is also included, should mending be required. 

The piece is numbered on a small strip of paper, affixed to the work with a small safety pin, as well as on a signed certificate of authenticity. 

The artist has also produced an edition of Can Cosies (below).


“Haegue Yang’s whimsical Cup Cosies elevates craft and knitting from the realm of the domestic to that of high art. Larger conceptual issues also emerge, the 100 yarn-bound plastic cups in varying colors and patterns offering a lighthearted meditation on the perceived boundaries between life and art.”
