It’s such a great way to get introduced to local artists.) (Incidentally, the Queen West Art Crawl is coming up again, September 21-22. Her blog Ghostface Knittah shows more of her work. She’s doing unusual, perfectly crafted work and the results are unique.

She immediately introduced the idea of doing a window display for Corey Mintz’s book, How to Host a Dinner Party, and when she told me Kalpna would be the one designing it, I felt pretty excited. I ripped my headphones out of my ears - stopping Lil Boosie mid-hook - and got down to the business of finding out about this artist who spoke so clearly to my thuggishly elegant heart.Ī couple of months ago I was doing some weekend browsing at Type Books, and said hello to community manager (and WORN Fashion Journal publisher) Serah-Marie McMahon. Upon closer inspection, it proved to be a solid gold molar. From afar, it appeared to be a demure yet unusual pendant. I was browsing through the stalls when a simple gold necklace caught my eye. I first came across Kalpna Patel’s work at the Queen West Art Crawl Outdoor Art Show in Bellwoods a couple of years ago.
