Woven Skin

Claudy Jongstra’s monumental sculptural installation features an assemblage of sixty hand-felted textile artworks that evoke a primal architectural impulse. The installation, in felt and steel, reveals a complex natural dye palette on its labyrinthine surface.

The rich Dutch history of color enters into dialogue with contemporary issues of biodiversity, community, and dissemination of knowledge, particularly in relation to art-making and agricultural practices. Exhibited internationally, 'Woven Skin' has served as a pavilion for dialogue on these topics through programming and partnerships dedicated to shaping a more resilient and regenerative future.
