Subway Stations, the very Wearable Art.

Subway Station Bracelet, Distill Gallery

If you’re a hardcore Torontonian (that can’t help but complain about the city on an ongoing basis, but still love it), then you’ll know what kind of relationship we have with the transit here. This past Friday some orange friends and I hung out at the Distillery District. While for the most part the boutiques there weigh in at the hefty price-tag end of the scale, we managed to happen across distill gallery and I purchased a resin-based bracelet with subway stations etched into it, by the artist Leslie Jones. Kitschy? Yes, but I love it.

Let me know what you think.
