Artist Transforms Her Upstate New York House Into a Psychedelic Work of Art

Calico Art House in New York

In 2010, artist Kat O’Sullivan (Katwise) began transforming her house in a rural stretch of Upstate New York into an incredibly colorful work of art. The house, now known as Calico, the House That Sweaters Built, is adorned inside and out with a “psychedelic rainbow” of lurid colors and patterns. The house is a work-in-progress, and O’Sullivan promises that “it will only get weirder.” When she’s not further adorning her house, O’Sullivan sells clothes that she makes from recycled sweaters on her Etsy store.
