Kai Chan : a spider's logic

This is a fascinating 35 year retrospective of the work of critically acclaimed textile artist and sculptor Kai Chan.

In his celebrated minimalist sculptures Kai Chan employs materials and techniques that speak to both tradition and modernity.

Working with common objects such as thread, twigs and buttons, Chan alters the nature of what constitutes sculpture and what constitutes textiles by transforming elements of the natural world to evoke geographical boundaries and cultural influences.

This 35-year retrospective publication features works created between 1975 and 2010, many of which are shown here for the first time.
