Description
Tim Johnson’s ‘Falling Fringe’ may be interpreted in relation to his experiences and his lifelong fascination with nature. This work comprising two contrasting systems of construction, presents us with a loose and open raffia fringe anchored to a geometric mesh of cut reed sections. Rooted in a body of work that has evolved over more than thirty years, many of Johnson’s installations and sculptural baskets feature deep pile and generous fringes. These works speak of Johnson’s desire to present natural materials in an honest and unfussy way, to create environments and contained spaces that welcome the viewer and invite an engagement with traditional and innovative making processes and to reflect on our relationship with the natural world.Join our mailing list
