"Coil Closed Net" Wall-Mounted Coiled Cotton Fiber Sculpture by Doug Johnston

About the Item

-Made in 2014 -cotton cord, sewing thread, wood wall mount This piece was made by coiling a single length of cotton cord, and repetitively and discretely sewing the coil together with an industrial sewing machine. The cord is raw cotton and is sewn with red and navy blue sewing thread. The piece undulates in relief from the wall, and the excess sewing thread is left intact lending detail and texture. This piece was originally part of the "Brooklyn Nets" solo exhibition at Aberson Exhibits in Tulsa, OK in 2014 and has been included in several group exhibitions around the USA from 2015-2019. Since 2010 Doug Johnston has produced a wide range of functional and sculptural objects using a process of coiling and stitching rope using industrial sewing machines. He has built a formal vocabulary and studio practice that engages his varied interests in architecture, spatial and landscape formation, commerce, and fundamental human technologies. The work often sits at the intersection of art, design, and craft, taking the position that no made object is exclusively aesthetic or utilitarian. He often collaborates with his partner, Tomoe Matsuoka. They live and work in Brooklyn, NY and Osaka, Japan.
